I’ll start with some pictures of yesterday while we were
still in Changsha. Most of these were taken at Yuelu Academy … it was so
peaceful there, we seriously did not
want to leave. The last picture in this series is at the airport just before we
flew out of Changsha. Just like when we left Kunming with Anna, we felt very
emotional leaving Changsha with Isaiah.

We woke early today to get ready for the medical exam. It was nothing short of chaos! There were dozens
of adoptive families there - totaling easily over 100 people - all waiting for their
new children to see all 3 doctors …. Yes, there were only three doctors there
to serve us all. It was hot, crowded, loud and exhausting for all the sweet
kids. Isaiah cried when the nurses had to examine him, thankfully he recovered
very quickly once back in our arms.
After the 2 plus hours at the medical clinic our guide Elvin
(who is great and very funny) dropped us back at the hotel and we had lunch.
Isaiah was overtired at this point and it took him over an hour to settle and
fall asleep. He’s still napping, but once he wakes we’re ready to hit the
island for some shopping and eating. It is warm and humid here which is a nice
change from cold and rainy.
