Hello Everyone!
We are one day closer to home! Yipee!!! The paperwork went well. We just need to pick up Bin Bin's visa tomorrow. We had free time for most of the day today. We went to Shaiman Island again. We walked around the entire area. It was really nice! We found some more goodies of course. We found a little panda backpack for Samuel Ty. He loves it!


Tonight we ate dinner with some new friends. They also adopted a little boy. We had the pleasure of listening to live music. Three chinese men (2 guitar and 1 upright bass) played American songs from the '70s and '80s. They also sang. We couldn't help but get tickled when we heard "Country Roads" by John Denver! Bin Bin loved it!!! He danced, clapped, and tried to sing! This was the moment I wish I had a video camera. I told Steve no one would believe us without a video!
Last night we ate supper with new friends and visited the pool. It was very nice!

Enjoy all of the pictures!!





We love you all!!!
Steve, Toni, and Samuel Ty

Steve and Toni,
It's great to hear that you are doing so well. The blog is great! Samuel Ty is a blessed little boy to be coming home to such a loving family.

God bless,

Matthew and Amanda Whittington

PS. Our team came close to taking a photo of a Mt. Dew yesterday and emailing you. We'll have to get you one when you return.
