Our group’s girls are due to arrive at 11am on Monday (China time, so 2pm Sydney time). We have to go across the road to the Civil Affairs Office to collect them. Izzy has probably already left her foster family and will be back at the orphanage by now. She will already be distressed, having left her foster family.
We will only have a short time to ask the orphanage carers questions about Izzy.
We will then come back to our hotel for about 30 mins, then have to meet our guide again around 12 noon to start the paperwork to finalise the adoption.
We will then go back across the road with Izzy to the Civil Affairs Office and start a 3 hour process which is registering the adoption and having the paperwork notarised. Our guide has told us it may take longer than usual as there is also a group of 9 Spanish families as well as a group from the US who will also be there at the same time.
Once all that is done and we are back in our hotel room, I’ll post photos to the blog.
