Day 43 (Monday)

Today our lawyer, lawyer assistant, myself, and the kids went to the American Embassy for the kids visa’s.  It was great meeting Jeff in person.  Jeff was our contact at the American Embassy.  He was a great help to us though out this entire process.  When I was there Jeff made a funny commit, you made it finally.  I said to him that this whole process is like running the amazing race and I am glad that it is over.  He made a funny joke back by saying, it’s not over yet you still have to get on the airplane.

It only took about an hour to get the visas.  It was a bit different then what I thought it would be like.  The whole process was done behind a glass window.   There is only one way I can describe it.   It was like picking up tickets from a will call office. 

Afterwards at the hotel the kids went swimming with the other family staying at the hotel.

I am really looking forward to leaving late Wednesday night for America.  I don’t think I can take the way people drive around here anymore.  I have seriously lost count how many times we have almost gotten into an accident (besides the one we actually did) or almost ran someone over.  Today we almost were tea boned, again. 

 

Until tomorrow,
