Day Two

I continue to get network errors when attempting to upload pics. I'll try to describe what we did, but the photos could tell so much more.

We visited the CCAA and BLAS offices on Day Two. It was pretty amazing to witness actual matchings, as well as meet the woman who very well may have matched many of our children with our families. We were graciously welcomed again in a short ceremony, and after touring the offices, were given a cultural lesson in calligraphy. The children were each given an album of lovely papercuttings. They have been showered with many special mementos. Some they treasure now, and some are things they will do so when they are older.

After a lovely lunch at The Banana Leaf, it was time to head to the airport for our flight to Guangzhou. The children continue to have a good time together, and I see many longer-term friendships being formed.
