A Day at the Market and Touring the City...‏

Today, we went to the local market and then we toured the city - it was really interesting to see the way the local people shop and all of the various items for sale. The tour of the city was just as interesting - it is funny when from time to time we will hear a "Hello" come from someone in the crowd. A few of the locals think us Americans are interesting people and Kevin, the husband in the other family, is very tall so he attracts a lot of attention

Richard, our guide, told us today that we should prepare two of our gifts to bring tomorrow (one for the orphanage and one for the foster family), along with any questions that we would like to ask the foster family (I did send a list with our care package, but will bring again), and he will meet us in the lobby at 2pm. He also asked that we bring a couple of toys for Jadyn as the transition may be difficult. We expect this and have a few items with us to hopefully help - we have laid out her bottles, formula, diapers, etc. in the hotel room to try to get organized and prepared for her arrival. We are relaxing tonight watching the HBO channel (one of only two in English) and hoping to sleep a little tonight as we are getting very excited for tomorrow! We will be sure to post pics as soon as possible. Until then - enjoy the ones from today!
