What Next?

Now that we have received our referral, we have another round of paperwork to complete. This round includes applying for visas, reapplying for a document that has expired, and making travel arrangements. Our agency will be handling most of the travel details, and we are thankful for that. This is also the leg of the journey when the bulk of our financial responsibilities will be discharged. We hope to travel in about six to eight weeks from now.

Our trip to China will be about two weeks. The first few days will be spent in Beijing acclamating to China, and learning what we can of the history and culture. From there we will travel to Guanxi province (the very Southern part of China), where we will pick up Selah! Well spend a few days in Guanxi to complete paperwork, and sightsee in Selah's home province. From there we head to Guangzhou. We will also have a few days in Guangzhou where we will complete paperwork with American consulate.
