Another good day here in China. This morning after breakfast, we went to the Provincial Museum for a few hours and learned about the history of the province Noelle is from. It was pretty interesting as we saw tombs of different prominent people back before Jesus was born. It is amazing on how rich the history and culture is in this country. We also enjoyed a show of musicians that played traditional Chinese music on instruments that were authentic dating back to the first dynasty of China. (I cannot remember the dates, but it was a VERY long time ago) Afterwards, we had lunch and took naps. Noelle seemed pretty out of sorts this morning- lethargic and crying a lot. She still has a little constipation, but delivered a few impressive diapers this afternoon. Afterwards she felt much better and was really hamming it up with squeals and smiles for us. She is so darn cute. Today we also went over the paperwork from the registration office so Noelle can get her passport tomorrow morning. This evening, an adoptive father friend of ours, Tom, and I walked about a mile to Walmart to get a new piece of luggage so we have more room for all our stuff for our trip to Guangzhou tomorrow. OUR LAST LEG OF OUR JOURNEY!!! Only 9 more days before we land back in the good ole' USA! We miss Nicholas and everyone so very much. I am also missing a good glass of water WITH ICE IN IT!!! All the drinks here are not very cold, and we cannot trust the water used to make the ice so we drink it warm. YUK! Well, we are getting tired and we just put Noelle in her crib (she went down without a whimper) and Brittany actually just crawled into her bed too. I better turn off the lights so I don't bother anyone. I will write sometime tomorrow. Our flight takes off at 6:10pm and arrives in Guangzhou at 8:20, so it shouldn't be too bad. Only 2 hours. We just have to see how Noelle does on a plane. (I hope she does well because we have a doosey a week from Saturday!!!) Good night all! Well, good morning for you!!!
