Too Good To Be True
April 30, 2010
So I guess this is what happens when you tempt the adoption fates, our trip has been bumped back a week. The weird thing is I 'm not really even too phased by it. It seems to be right in keeping with all the other bumps and bruises suffered along the way.
You don't have to say it, she's worth it! I already know that much. All the time, the energy, the tears, the wait, the money, the risk, the emotional exhaustion....a thousand times over, my Macy is worth it.
Here is our new schedule:
05/27 - Depart Cleveland (via Newark)
05/28 - Arrive in Beijing (if you are going here first)
05/29 - Beijing Tour
05/30- Fly to your province
05/31 – Gotcha Day!
06/4 - Fly to Guangzhou
06/05 – Medical exam/TB Test
06/08 - AC appointment
06/09- Oath-taking ceremony
06/10 - Family goes to AC to pick up passport with visa at ~ 3:30 pm/Train to Hong Kong
06/11 - Disneyland Hong Kong
6/13- Depart for Home (Cleveland via Newark)
Here is the likely reason for the delay, (posted on China Adopt Talk today);
"Many of the families who received TA at the end of March/early April aren't traveling until May because of the trade fair, so many of the May CA's were booked weeks ago for those families."
