		<description><![CDATA[Uhhhh, let&#8217;s see. How to summarize the past week or so&#8230; We made it home. Merry loves the dogs and cats. Two of the dogs love her back, one avoids her (but she avoids everybody pretty much &#8211; she&#8217;s 15 years old), and the cats could mostly care less except for the fact that this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Things that happened today: Somehow scored a private van for free to shuttle us and another family to the Hong Kong airport from the hotel instead of making us ride the ginormous shuttle bus with a billion other people &#8211; check (woot!). Waited in line forever to check in with United where they couldn&#8217;t find [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The (arguably) most important part of the whole trip, well &#8211; after Gotcha Day anway. We had our consulate appointment!! We had to be on the bus at some ungodly hour to be there first thing so breakfast was early, early, early. I don&#8217;t do early and J was annoying because he was hungry so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With bated breath we headed to the visa medical appointment. Merry was loaded up with ibuprofen and we headed out thinking good thoughts of a normal temperature and a patient child(ren). We made it to the new building with no issues. The medical exam used to be done on Shamian Island but it&#8217;s moved to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Merry is sick. She has been running a hard to reduce fever (between 100 and 103 degrees) for more than 24 hours now. She is eating normally and drinking enough &#8211; even though I resorted to syringe feeding (drinking?) her 6 ounces of formula and 4 ounces of pedialyte this evening. I understand why she [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I want to thank you all so much for your comments on my previous post. Your support truly helps get us through each day. Today was (mostly) better. We, along with a couple of other families, decided to grab some taxis and head over to the Henan Provincial Museum. Admission is free for foreign passport [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m kind of an emotional wreck today. Due to a procedural change in the way the baby&#8217;s passport is applied for and issued we were required to apply in person in the city she is from. Her city, Nanyang, is about a 4 hour drive from the provincial capital, Zhengzhou, where we are now. Regardless [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ll try to flesh it out in the next day or so and add pictures but I haven&#8217;t downloaded them yet and everyone else is asleep so I can&#8217;t turn on the light to find the camera to do that right now. Well, that and I really have to go [...]]]></description>

We started the day out early with breakfast at the hotel where Merry ate 422 dragon fruits. I exaggerate only a little. She LOVES these things &#8211; and they even provide [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s okay. I think you&#8217;ll get the idea. On the way out the door: The view from the provincial office while we were [...]]]></description>
