Day One Continued

After spending the morning holding babies, we had an unexpected treat. A group of domestic adoptees were practicing for a Christmas program and invited us to watch the practice, which was delightful.


In the afternoon, we visited the old emporer's palace, which is 1000 years old. We toured in small groups, with local middle school students as our guides. 










One of the huge things I have enjoyed about this trip is getting to know the other group members. There are 4 young adoptees, plus a biological son in the group.  They have already bonded and are really enjoying being together 

Everyone else is either an adult adoptee or adoptive parents, and one other adoptive grandmother. I am enjoying getting to know them and hearing all their stories.
