Day 9 - Clinic Appointment & Visa Pictures



Today we had breakfast and then walked to get Grace's Visa picture and to get the babies physicals. Grace hates taking pictures and anyone in a white lab coat. So all of her "official" pictures have her frowning or crying. The Visa picture took about two minutes for us but we had to wait for the rest of the group to finish. We then walked over to the clinic where we had to wait for quite a while for the paperwork to be prepared and handed out to each family. There were three stations we had to visit, "Height, Weight and Temperature, Ears-Nose-Throat, and Physical Exam." Danielle and I are always second on the list for appointments so we got finished fairly quickly. We were allowed to leave once we finished with our exam.

Here we are waiting to get into the exam room.














On the way back to the White Swan we stopped and got Grace some new squeaky shoes. These are a lot easier to deal with than the ones she had one when we got her. Into the keep sake box goes the old pair.




After that we went with some of the other families to the local mall for some shopping for a few needed supplies. It is interesting to leave the hotel with only a note from our guides telling the taxi driver in Chinese where to take us. It works just fine and the taxi takes you right to where you want to be. We spent about forty-five minutes shopping and back to the hotel.





Here we are and our friends Marty, Shannon and Olivia after shopping.
