Day 2

We are having another good/busy day. Had a nice breakfast this morning, the restaurant is on the 29th floor, it is a revolving restaurant and overlooks the city of Hefei. After breakfast, we finsihed all our official paperwork. We went to the civil affairs office, where we completed an interview, then the orphanage official came, and then the notary office. We are done with most of the paperwork in the provence. Fu Bing is now our son. I was able to ask a few questions to the orphanage official, and he seemed happy to share with me.


We had lunch in the room, since we only have an hour and then we are going to the orphanage for a visit, and then to the police department to apply for Fu Bing's passport. It is about a 2 hour ride to the orphanage.

We are continuing to do well. Fu Bing loves his new camera (thanks Donna) and we have many pictues of the floors, walls, and occasional people :) No surprise, but Fu Bing eats like all the other Van Nostrand children.

oh, there is one picture that might be hard to see, but i love seeing signs that are "funny" in China. the sign was on the building next to the police dept. It was a business center, but the sign says "pleasure yourself" lol.
