The Waterfall and the Red Couch: At the White Swan Hotel, the Red Couch is the famous couch where adoption groups photo their beauties.
This was Don and I in the White Swan Hotel donning Amy's first traditional Chinese apparel.
This is the group of dumplings we traveled to China for and around China with. Click to enlarge.

The children look so precious in their chinese clothing. How many of these families will you be able to see once you are home?
Love, Mom
"Nine Satin Dumplings!" They're all beauties! And Amy's absolutely gorgeous, of course! I can see the stars swimming in Mom's and Dad's eyes! Such kvelling! So many bubbelas! (So little sleep, and so much schmutz!) Janet--I'll try and go word for word with you with spoken Yiddish, but, mamala--you and Gina and whoever else posted can spell rings around me mit de Mamaloshkin. (See, I'm drowning already!) Continued safe travels--and I can't wait to see you all here in VA!
Hi all,
We couldn't see your photos for a few days-internet connection troubles. We were really treated today when we got home from school and found all these pics.
Amy is just gorgeous with her beautiful blue Chinese outfit!
Sounds like you guys are having a ball!
Love, Ron, Chris and Alicia
The blue outfit is DARLING! Good selection for the group picture!
I want to say how much we appreciate hearing the comments from family and friends. This has been an experience of a life time and the back and forth on this site has been a great way for us to share our joy. I look forward to reading all the comments and check the site each day we have access.
Today is the consulate appt. for the US visa for Amy.
We also do a small amount of touring today.
I will try to get some photos today but already know the consulate office is off limits for cameras.

Hey Don,
I've got a question for you. Were you really as scared as you look on that tiger on the lavida.org site? Is the man in the picture trying to get the tiger's eye off your leg?
Really though, you have done a great job capturing the moments of your trip
and we can't wait to meet Amy in person. I had to print pictures of Amy in her blue outfit for Alicia to take to school. She thinks Amy's the prettiest baby in the group.
Have a safe trip home.
Love, Ron, Chris, and Alicia
Ron, Chris and Alicia,
The tiger was real and pretty darn scary! When he growled at the first guy in our trip I almost jumped back out of the cage. At least he did not growl at me just that look back that you see.
Going to the consulate in minutes for the visa then last group dinner tonight and leave the hotel for the airport at 5:30 am
Don
These are just fantastic!
The group pictures are a real gem.
Awating Amy, and her dad and mom in just a day!
Love
Tia Maggie
