I can't even believe that I am finally writing that our tickets are booked!!! I honestly don't think I have ever been more excited in my whole life. Of course, each of my children were special in the way they came into our family. But the anticipation and waiting for this to happen and the fact that Chad and I get to experience it together is surreal! I had Angela from ladybugsnlove send a letter and a dress to Mariah. She will get it Monday or Tuesday. I just wanted Mariah to know that we were coming, her family was finally coming! Hopefully I will get a few pictures this week too!
So here is our plans:
We leave Friday March 20th at 7:30 am from Cleveland
We arrive in Newark for our connecting flight and arrive in Beijing Saturday (time difference) at 2:00 p.m.
Saturday March 21st we will probably just try to adjust to the time change.
Sunday March 22nd Great Wall Tour
Monday March 23rd we meet with other Holt families and attend a seminar.
Tuesday March 24th we leave early in the morning for Nanning, where we will finally be united with Mariah Zhan Hecky. (AMAZING!)
Wednesday 25th, Thursday 26th, Friday 27th, Saturday 28th, Sunday 29th we will remain in Nanning
Monday March 30th we leave Nanning and go to Guangzhou
Tuesday March 31st Guangzhou
Wednesday April 1st (MYA's Gotcha Day 2 years ago) U.S. Consulate Visa Appointment
Thursday April 2nd Visa Issued
Take Late Train to Hong Kong
Friday April 3rd Leave for Home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We leave Hong Kong at 10:25 a.m. and return in Cleveland at 5:52 p.m.!!!!!
The way the the Lord worked His timing is just so incredible to me. This is the same exact week that I traveled to get Mya two years ago!!!! Sadly, I won't be with Mya to celebrate her 2nd Gotcha Anniversary, but there will be plenty of celebrating when we get home!
