Greetings Friends! What a full day we had today! We started by visiting a genuine Chinese Fish Market within walking distance of our Hotel just off Shamian Island. It was pure pandemonium and I loved it! The experience was authentic China with all its unregulated gritty craziness. (Thanks to Paul Cyphers for the great suggestion to visit this market!!)

Waiting with open arms!
Arrived home from your house just now - everything looks great. I took the opportunity to check out Julia's room and it could not be more precious. Thanks you so much for guiding us through your journey. I was especially moved by your trip to the orphanage and look forward to sharing more thoughts on the experience since we touched on that before you all left. What a great way to bring this chapter of Julia's life full circle and blessedly closed forever. Believe it or not, Tripp just made an appointment to get his battery of shots for his upcoming trip to Haiti! Just another necessary step in this crusade to bring more children to their forever families. We have missed you and anxiously await the arrival of our newest little friend. Please put us on the list for a visit OR consider yourselves invited over ASAP. Love and Safe Travels, The Baltz Family

Home again, home again.....
We will be praying for all of you during the long journey home and for your adjustment to life here in the US. We have loved every word of these blogs, and cherish all of the pictures. Thanks for doing such a superb job with this. We do have funny story about the drama of Hannah becoming a citizen. Can't wait to catch up in person! Godspeed, The Cyphers

Yeah!
So glad to hear all the wonderful adventures and so grateful that things have come together as they have. Thanks be to God! I'm sure your own beds in good old Arvada will feel extra comfy tonight! I still remember the feeling when the adrenaline stopped coursing through my body when we walked into our own house with Bilkisu and Issa and shut the door. I hadn't realized I'd been on an internal adrenaline drip for the whole time we were traveling! ; ) Praying and excited- can't wait to see Julia! xo J, C, K & I
