I wish that I could have posted last night, but I had trouble getting to the blog. My mom is here with me and things have gone really well. Charlie´s foster mom was to bring him here yesterday at 6am - prior to our 7:15am Embassy Appt. I only learned later in the day that she arrived at 4:30am! But he arrived safely. It was a very tough goodbye. I did not get to meet his birthmom as I´d hoped (but expected that to be the case). The embassy appt was a breeze (oh, except Charlie pretty much screamed for most of the waiting time - the waiting area is like the DMV). This afternoon was the Visa pickup (again - at the embassy).
Other than that, we´ve stayed at a very nice little b&b type place right next door to the embassy. We walked around town yesterday and did some shopping. Today we stayed close - reading in the garden.
We leave very early tomorrow (up at 4:45am which 5:45am CT) to catch our cab at 5:30 and our 8:30am flight.
We look forward to seeing everyone and will post pics when we get settled!
