It's A Brand New Day!

Last night was a very difficult night. Savannah was up at 2 am with a 101.6 fever and screaming. We finally calmed her down and switched from Motrin to Tylenol. We all fell asleep and woke up around 7 am. She felt so much better today. We just keep her on Tylenol and she's good. She must be feeling normal because, she would not take a nap today. Below are some pictures of our final day at the White Swan Hotel on Shamian Island in Guangzhou, China.


Feeling much better this morning!


She smiles again!!


On our way to the US Consulate to take the oath. The oath is 1 sentence. It is us as parents swearing that the information on Savannah's visa application is true and correct to the best of our knowledge. Savannah is to small to take the oath herself since she did not complete the paperwork. It was a big ordeal for something that took 30 seconds. We were then handed her visa and a brown envelope that we hand over to the immigration officials at the airport in the US. It was the final step before going to home. She becomes a US citizen when we land on US soil.


Here are our friends Jenny & Susan. Jenny and her husband own a little shop called Jenny's Place on Shamian Island. They let us use a stroller for the week for free, they did our laundry for us and we of course bought a bunch of souvenirs, dresses and squeaky shoes. They were the nicest girls and gave us great prices. They gave us the best prices from the beginning, so it was so easy for us. For those of you still waiting to travel, please visit their store.

Our final dinner was again at the Italian restaurant. I ordered the same as I had last night. I needed another great meal for the dreaded flight home tomorrow. Savannah was still doing much better this evening. She crashed when we got back to the hotel room.
