A visit to Shamen Island

Levi had his medical check up today.  We thought he was going to have to get 4 shots but thankfully his orphanage had already given him them all .  He was very relieved I know.  We then went to Shamen Island.  It is a great area.  We spent our entire time on the island for our first 3 adoptions.  Most people adopting stayed there because the medical clinic was there as well as the US consulate.  It was a hustling and bustling place.  The hotel that we stayed in shut down for renovation a few years ago and the consulate and clinic moved off the island.  We have great memories of being there.  Today was once again blazing hot so we didn't make it long outdoors.  Most of our time was spent in Starbucks drinking a smoothie.  This is by far the most relaxing trip we have had.  We have these 2 easy going boys and there is no one else in our travel group right now so we are taking advantage of the down time.

The Visa issuing system is up and going again so we just pray that it stays that way.  That is about all I have to report.  Another evening of swimming is on our boys schedule.  Life is tough.  Thank you for all of your prayers.


This is for you Leah



DonLi asked why you couldn't play your trumpet here.  I'm so glad I left mine at home.


We have some hot tired boys
