FIVE YEARS DOWN THE TRACK...

In November 2004 we started the journey to bring a baby home from China ... five years later, in October 2009, we met Isobel Pingqin.
Our little livewire known as Izzy.

Nanchang - Day 2

Have done a fair bit of exploring today and getting to know the area around our hotel.  Have been to the Chinese supermarket – absolutely huge and over 50 checkouts and they were all operating.  Peter found a shop he loves – see photo.  Also some photos of the main road outside the hotel and the traffic.  The locals love to come up to us and say “hello” because it is the only English they know.  We’ve met other families who are staying in our hotel from various countries who have already received their children. 

Also met a couple from the US today who have lived here for 5 years and teach English.  They said Leping, the county where Izzy is from, is very poor and we will probably be quite shocked when we visit.
