Our little light got a booboo today at the Embassy as she and Brian were racing to get a gatorade. But she is okay! We left for the Embassy at 7:30 this morning and got home around 11:00ish. There were some paperwork glitches (more frustrations), but we believe we have it all sorted out and we should get our visa tomorrow at 3:30. Then we will call Delta to book our flight home (which we hope will be Wednesday morning at 9:30--direct flight to Atlanta!!!!)
Adios Juan! We are beginning to walk around and tell special places "goodbye." Today, Lucia, Silas and I walked together (Brian had to work). We paused at one point, and I told Lucia to just soak it all in...the sights, the smells, the feelings. She was so sweet, for she looked at me and said, "Mommy, I will soak it into my heart. I'll keep it there."
We went to Juan Valdez to say goodbye to this special place that holds many wonderful memories for us (our girl time). We enjoyed our last brownie caliente and granazada (like a frapp).
After our time here, we walked back to the hotel saying "bye" to various special places. I got teary eyed with tears of joy and sadness as we were walking. This really has been an incredible experience for our family. Especially for Lucia, she has matured in so many ways while being here.
Playing in the courtyard with Per and Nicolai.
Inez surprised us by bringing Obleas to eat. She let me practice making them since we are bringing back 50 to share with our family and friends!
Randi and Nicolai enjoying obleas.
Per and Randi gave us these socks that Per's mother knitted. They are nice, comfy and warm!
