Our day Monday

What a crazy week. Monday we walked down the street to another hotel to meet Michael. It was amazing to see him for the first time! We have been looking at his picture for so long. It was very emotional. We took him back to our room to have some time together. We played on the floor and looked at his photo album that the orphanage gave us. Michael sat so quietly. After awhile he tried to stand. I held onto him so he would not fall. Little did I know that he could walk! He took off and was all over the room. Around 4 we met our guide to go to walmart. We walked through the old part of the city to get to walmart. What an experience. The buildings were beautiful but it was very crowded and there were food vendors everywhere with everything you could imagine. Walmart was insane! There we got a stroller and diapers. We then found out stores do not take American credit cards (great) so John our guide paid.
Will write about our Tuesday adventure soon...Michael just woke up from nap. (he sleeps throughout the night!)

    1. Internet access here is a bit choppy. This hotel seems better with the wifi.
