Meimei's look sums it all up!

Baba and Annie
Some special Chongqing friends we met at the International Toy Market
We are ready to go home. Actually we have been ready for over a week. We have had a wonderful time making new friends like the Gerbers, Qun Qun and her family, the Maitlands, and our special friend Ann from Red Thread China. Anne helped us send care packages to Annie and we were lucky enough to spend an afternoon with her in Guangzhou. Qun Qun is a beautiful little girl who we met in Hefei who has found her forever family in the US. Ying adores Qun Qun and it was nice to spend some time with her and her special family in Guangzhou. Our travel group has made this trip bearable. We could not have done this without our friends the Gerbers and Maitlands. Having friends to share the joys and some times trials of this trip have really helped us. For some reason, this trip has been our hardest. The past two trips were sort of bitter sweet towards the end. This trip, it has been more like, we are done with this and send us home! In the last shop we were in tonight, I told Patrick that we should just go. We really did not need any of the stuff there and we could do just fine without it. We will be forever grateful to China for our beautiful daughters. We love this country but we are ready to head to our own country and our own home.
Tomorrow, we board a train in the morning for Hong Kong. We hope to spend the day in Hong Kong at Disney, go to sleep in one more hotel, and then head home the next morning. I don't know if we will have internet access tomorrow night so this might be our last post from China.
