Day 7 - We're Over Halfway There

The only official work done today was receiving Julan's Chinese passport to take to the US consulate early next week. Today we took a tour to White Cloud Mountain. Although it's not really a mountain by "Rockies" standards, it did offer an impressive view of GuangZhou. Of course they neglected to mention that we would sweat out every spare liter of hydration we had in our bodies! The best news is that yesterday was not a fluke, and Julan really is beginning to blossom. Always a smile, more adventurous... she's so much less tentative. I hope that the pictures we're uploading are helping you to get to know her. It's a little tough on Jolene and I from the standpoint that it's been nearly a decade since we've had a baby on our hip. Being "on your game all the time" is something we haven't had to deal with lately. But there is something very satisfying about watching her peacefully sleeping...
