hey

hello everyone,
we went on the river cruise tonight. it was nice. all along the river there are lots of buildings lit up in different colors. the colors change and move. the bridges are lit up too. we have our consolate appointment tomorrow. we get babies visa and then we are free to go! none too soon i can tell you. i am too old for this. i think i mentioned earlier about the lady with the broken leg. i got her full story today. during her first week here when they were in her child's province they were touring a rice paddie. she fell in a hole or something and broke the bone in her upper leg. she dropped the baby and the baby went in to the water face down. she reached out and twisted to get the baby and broke her leg a second time. they had to make a splint for her leg and carry her out. she had to go immediatley and have surgery. to make matters worse she is here by herself. they have hired a student to push her around in her wheelchair. i do not know what they will do about her going home. she definately needs all our prayers. looking at the pics. one is the girls in our group in traditional chinese outfits on the red couch. left to right is addie, annali and alaina. in the other you can see this child has some monkey toes. well see yall soon.
