Let's just say that this was a very emotional visit. We saw how much Emanuiel's foster family loved him it was a very touching visit with them. I'll have to post more about that later. For now here are some more pictures of our train trip.
Sleeping travelers. We are going to miss them sooooo much when they leave. They have been such a big help to us.
View from the train.
Land in the Civil Affairs office.
Emanuiel with the much loved back pack. We bought this for CB while we were in the Chicago Airport. We will be buying another one on our trip home. He has taken this one over and puts all of his things in it. We didn't have the foresight to buy two in the beginning!!!
A tired boy after the orphanage visit. He was a little nervous while we were there.
Typical street in Guilin.
A very special spot, more on this later. Emanuiel was still sleeping.
His favorite food and a special gift he received.
Two brothers horsing around in the hotel room!

We are growing watermelons in our garden...there will be one waiting for Emanuiel to choose when you get home!!!
Much love!
Oh, Robin! This post brings tears to my eyes- the train ride, the SWI visit, the foster parents, the "special spot." Did you fall in love with Guilin as we did? Give that sweet boy a hug from his Guilin sister!
What a handsome young man. God is so good in bringing Emanuiel to such a wonderful family. We continue to pray for the whole family each day that things go smoothly. Thank you for letting us be a part of this. Looking forward to meeting Emanuiel.
