Final Blog Post in China (from Sherri)

I can't believe that 16 days in China have passed so quickly! We leave to go to the airport in 6 hours. I really tried to soak up the atmosphere of China one final time tonight as we went to dinner with two wonderful adoptive families. I am tearful to leave Esther's homeland, yet excited to finally be going home.

Our final day consisted of visiting the Canton Tower, which boasts the tallest observation deck in the world. Notice that the girls are not in any of the pictures taken from the top. I made it to the 33rd floor and had to remind myself to breathe so I wouldnt pass out, seriously. The Daniels had a blast. After packing (and buying an extra suitcase for all our souvenirs) we had one final dinner with friends that will be life long at the Banana Leaf.

Thank-you everyone for all your prayers and support throughout this entire process. Without everyone's generous giving of love, time and finances we would never have been able to bring Esther home. We are so blessed by our faith family. There is now one less orphan in the world.
