We Have An Itinerary!

We got our itinerary this morning! The most important question has been answered: WE MEET CAITLIN ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 10TH!!!

The rest of the schedule goes kind of like this:

*Thursday, October 7th: Depart USA

*Friday, October 8th: Arrive in Beijing

*Saturday, October 9th: Tour Beijing (Tienanmen Square, Forbidden City, Olympic Park, and... THE GREAT WALL!)

*Sunday, October 10th: Head to Fuzhou; MEET CAITLIN!!!

*Monday, October 11th: Finalize adoption

*Tuesday, October 12th-Thursday, October 14th: Tour around the province. We are going to request a visit to Caitlin's orphanage, but we don't know if we will be granted a visit or not.

*Friday, October 15th: Head to Guangzhou

*Saturday, October 16th: Medical Exam (Caitlin has to get all her vaccinations before she leaves China; whatever she has not yet had, she will be given here, all at once. Unfortunately we do not have an option or a say in the matter; this was the U.S.'s brilliant idea...)

*Sunday, October 17th: "Sunday Sermon"

*Monday, October 18th: Paperwork, Interview

*Tuesday, October 19th: Caitlin's Oath Ceremony, when she will be sworn in as a U.S. citizen
