First day in Hanoi Pt.2
We met some more of the hotel staff this morning. They are all very nice people. They have already made us feel so welcomed. This afternoon Mr. Linh took us to the Vincom Tower, a local mall, to do some shopping at the grocery store. Yes, this involved a cab ride. Even now, at night, we're still laughing in disbelief. I'm sure we'll get used to it soon. Before dinner we had a meeting with Mr. Dat, the facilitator that works for our agency's Vietnam staff. He said we will be travelling to Phu Tho tomorrow (Sunday) to meet Tanner. We are so excited! It's a 2+ hour drive each way and we'll get to spend an hour with him. Our giving and receiving ceremony will be Monday or Tuesday, the date has not been confirmed yet.

Baby? Baby? Im glad you guys survived the car ride, and congratulations on just missing the disaster drill at the buffalo airport that started 15 minutes after your plane took off. Hope you guys are having fun and taking lots of pictures.

I'm so glad you made it to your hotel safe and sound. I'm so excited for you and I know tonight will probably be one of the longest while you wait to see Tanner! We're praying for you.
Sounds like a fun adventure! Not sure how this skype thing works but we are signed in on it all the time. If you get a chance send an e-mail and let us know what to do! Enjoy your adventure!
