When Are You Going To China?

The Diary of our wait for Emma, somewhere in China

Monday, August 02, 2010

Free day

Today was ours with no appointments.  We had a nice breakfast, did an hour of shopping then ate at Lucy's for dinner...Emma caught a few zzz's during the day.  We took a boat cruise down the Pearl River, which proved too stimulating for Emma, so no more post 6pm activities for awhile.  During dinner, the music got her going and her mood snowballed from there...she screamed bloody murder on the bus to the boat, but there was no way to turn back even though we wanted to.  Everything in China is so loud and she comes undone.  It took Doug quite awhile to get her to stop screaming at bedtime.  Agencies need to leave out the excursions during adoption trips, it's just too much for everyone.

Tomorrow at 2pm we go to the Consulate for the swearing in and the adoption paperwork is d-o-n-e!

Forgot to mention...she loves a bath, but hates the pool.
