Today our agency completed the primary part of our paperwork at the US Consulate. We may have a little signing for tomorrow, but for all practical purposes, our paperwork is complete.

Tomorrow we will go for our swearing in ceremony at the Consulate. We will get Jenna's passport, and we will be free to go. We are so excited that we will be headed home on Friday.

Today we picked up a Webcam so we can get a little more real time feedback. I wish we had done this at the outset, but better late than never. You can see some of the stores we visited in the pictures.

Here you can also see the meal we had last night. The group meals that we have had, have way more food than we can eat. Two nights in a row we have sent food home with our guide. We had a mix of chicken, beef, fish and vegetables. We tried most things, except for the fish.

Tonight we went to a Western style restaurant name Lucy's. The food was decent, but still not home. Jenna ate an entire bowl of mashed potatoes, and a bunch of noodles. Natalia, I think Jenna will be real competition with the noodles when we get home. :)

There is also a picture of us checking out the pool. It was a little disconcerting since it was on the top of the building, windy, and even though there was a walkway before the edge of the building, it felt like it would be easy to fall off. Very weird feeling.

Thanks again for everyone's supportive words and loving comments. We again thank God for safety, and pray He will bring us home.
