Adoption Journey

Tuesday, December 12, 2006






We had a wonderful day!!!!! It only took a little over an hour to get Jenna's visa at AIT. As soon as we left, we went to a theme park, which was about an hour out of Taipei. It is call Leefoo Village - it features rides and shows from nations around the world (like Epcot). There were no crowds, though, because it was a week day. It wasn't Disney World, either, but it was fun. Jenna has wanted to go there her whole life and we got to be the ones to take her! It was so worth it to see her big smiles and cute giggles and belly laughs - as is evident in her pictures :) The last ride we rode on was Rapid River. The sign warns that you will get wet. HA! We got drenched - it was so much fun, we laughed the whole long ride!!! Jenna wanted to go again, and this time we got Dad in on the action - fun fun fun!!!
After the wet taxi ride back to the hotel, we ate dinner and are now relaxing in the suite. Sheis watching one of her favorite TV shows - very cute - similar to "Lizzie Mc Guire" or "Raven."
Tomorrow we plan on relaxing at the hotel and swimming. We all need a rest, let me assure!
The day couldn't have been more perfect and I wouldn't change one thing. Anyone adopting older children here - we definitely recommend the theme park. It completely broke down any barriers of shyness and timidity between us.
She is absolutely wonderful - I kid you not. In everything she does, she demonstrates a caring personality and a loving disposition. We are so happy with her :) She has been very happy today and this evening. Yeah!

    I think it's great that you were able to take her there and it's something she's dreamed of. It's the begining of many dreams come true, for everyone in your family.
