Happy Healthy Girl

We have had a wonderful day. Kate has been a very happy girl. She seems to be feeling much better.

The simplest and cheapest toys are always the best:

Post Red Couch Photo:





The Hanson's came to visit to use our computer to verify their flight on Friday. Mei Ling was really delighted by the photos on the computer:




After the Red Couch photo, we had a photo taken of the entire group, then went out for a wonderful dinner together. Unfortunately, we don't have any photos of this. We brought three cameras with us on this trip: a 35mm Canon with a 28 to 300mm zoom, a Sony Cybershot digital still camera, and a new Sony camcorder. All of the pictures on this blog were taken with the Sony Cybershot. Eddie dropped the Cybershot while we were at the zoo. People at work will recognize this as a possibility whenever Eddie is handling a camera. However, in his defense, he is trying to juggle a lot of cameras, and, oh yes, there's a new baby involved as well. Anyway, the Cybershot is beginning to act up (we don't think that digital still cameras are supposed to make grinding noises), and some of the photos are not coming out. We may try to visit a electronics market or store tomorrow and see what kind of deal we can get on a new Cybershot.

Bottom line - There may not be as many photos up on a daily basis in the upcoming few days as there have been in the past. It all depends on what we can find tomorrow.

Tomorrow is Kate's birthday - one year old. Tomorrow is also our last day in Guangzhou, and the day we visit the American Consulate, take the oath on Kate's behalf, and get her Passport.
