Getting to know each other in our hotel and seeing some sights of Shanxi Province in China. We are in a city similar in size to Chicago but with a lot more pollution. Check out the smog in the above picture!! Meili is doing great and we are thankful to have itranslateVOICE app on the iPad for those moments when we just have absolutely no idea what each other is trying to say.

Tommorrow we finish up notary paperwork in Meili's province and visit the Shanxi Museum of History. Then it's off to Guangzhou in the south for a week for US consulate appointment, medical tests, and other paperwork.
Glad to hear everything is going well for your family. Love the pics!
