Guangxi Map - Province where Gianna is from
Giannas Province
China Map
The map above is a smaller scale of the entire country of China - see map below this one of Guangdong province specifically (where Chloe is from)
Guangdong China Map (courtesy of Joho Maps)
Chloe is from Maoming City in Guangdong Province. Directly to the West of Guangdong Province is Gianna's province of Guangxi. Guangdong is the southern most province in China (weather much like Florida in the States) and just North of Hong Kong. Maoming city is in the Southwest end of the province. Thankfully, all adoptions are finalized in the Chinese Government offices located in Guangzhou which is the capital of Guangdong province so at least one week of our stay will be in nicer weather if we end up traveling in the dead of winter!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I have loved reading of all your travels and experiences. I laugh out loud and also cry. Great pics - hi to all. Can't wait to see you back home - safe travels.

I'm so happy to finally see pictures of Gianna!! I was out of town for 4 days and came back to read about "Gotcha Day" - sounds like Chloe & Gigi are bonding well. In the middle picture, Gigi reminds me of LiLi, the way she's gazing. Thanks so much for giving the photo albums - and thanks to XiXi for translating!
We love the Great Wall restaurant - it was a fairly safe adventure, as usually someone was able to steer me clear of anything too spicy or "off the wall". There used to be a little amusement area behind the Walmart - kiddie rides and a fishing-type game, in case you go back.
Love reading (and now seeing) about your beautiful new daughter!!
Hugs,
Stephanie
