Day 4 – 10/11/09 – Last Day in Beijing

Busy day today.  This morning, we had our adoption agency's Orientation meeting.  The best thing about the meeting is that we got some updated information about Jacinda.  The picture above was in our package!  It's not the greatest picture, but it will have to hold you over until tomorrow!

 

Then we had lunch with all the families from our agency.  Then we went to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.  Today was the last day of a big celebration here, so there were hundreds of thousands people there and it was raining.  So it was a little crazy!!!!

 

We're SO glad we took a few days to spend in Beijing.  It's an incredible city and we have seen so many things that we wouldn't have been able to if we had not arrived early.  But now we are ready to get on with the adoption stuff and meet our girl!

 

Tonight, we need to pack our suitcases because we leave at 5:50 am tomorrow morning for the Beijing Airport to head to Changsha, which is where we'll get Jacinda!!!  Our next post will have pictures of us with Jacinda, so stay tuned!  Oh, and I think we've finally decided on a middle name, but you'll have to wait to hear it ……. We're about 99% decided, so we're leaving ourselves a little room to change our minds.  Again.
