For all of you followers - we have arrived. Actually yesterday, but we couldn't get on the internet until this morning. In a few short hours (4) we will be meeting our son for the first time. We are so excited! We will definitely try and post more when we can - - not promising tonight, as much as I'd love to. Hopefully with our first pictures too!
The flight was very long. Even though we broke it up into multiple legs....... Layovers were the worst. Luckily on the way back our layovers are much shorter!
The weather here is actually very pleasant for us northerners. Yesterday I think it was maybe 75. Nice and comfortable. So strange, it's so much like we remembered but very different at the same time. Well we're off for our breakfast, then gathering the items for the orphanage and exchanging all the cash donations for Rupees to purchase the final items. (Again, thank you to everyone that donated. Your generosity was overwhelming!)
More later!
