Zhengzhou Day 3 & 4

Today the families (and me!) went to registration and the notary office to finalize adoption paperwork. Then we went to apply for the children's passports so they can fly to Guangzhou then USA.

 I ate dinner with three families and Xia at the Holiday Inn Express which was next door to our hotel. I had steamed dumplings and the beef noodle bowl (really good!). After dinner Xia and I walked to a mall to look around. Even on a Tuesday night at 8 PM there were people and cars everywhere. Crossing the street is an event. Stoplights and crosswalks mean nothing! We made it there and back unharmed. It is such a production walking around here. The next day was a free day. I went to Wal-Mart and a park with some families. The park was beautiful and the kids enjoyed running around.

Watch out!

We got pizza for dinner and although it didn't taste exactly like home it was pretty close!
