American Consulate


































This morning Celia got up at 5:00 AM. She took a bottle immediately and drank it in about 2 minutes. She doesn't waste any time when it comes to eating. After we got dressed we went down to the breakfast bar at the hotel. All she would eat was tater tots. After breakfast Danielle, Lily, Celia and I went for a walk around the island. We went to the riverfront and watched the people doing Tai Chi and singing songs. It was very peaceful and beautiful there. The guys stayed in the hotel room to wait for Veronica to call and say that everything was okay at the American Consulate. She had to take all of our paperwork to the American Consulate this morning and get us registered in. After a little walking and shopping, we headed back to the hotel, got on our swim suits and headed to the pool. Greg came to the pool around 11:20AM and said that Veronica had called and said that everything is fine. All we have left now is to go to the American Consulate tomorrow and be sworn in. After that we are free to return home. Yipee!!! We are ready. This has been a wonderful trip but we are ready to come home. This afternoon, after the girls take a nap, we are going to the second floor and getting the girls pictures made on the red couch. We have bought Celia a little blue Chinese dress so we are going to dress her up in that to get her picture made. First picture is Celia making a face like me. She mimics a lot. Second picture is Celia and her friend Lily at breakfast. Third picture is Celia and me in front of a Bonsai tree in the hotel lobby. They have beautiful Bonsai trees here.
