When we pick up Grace we will go to Fuzhou. We do not get to go to her orphanage. Longyan(where Grace is) is an 8 hour bus ride. The good thing is we don't have to make that trip. The bad thing is we will probably not get to meet her foster parents.
We went to our favorite Chinese restaurant for dinner. We started to talking to the lady at the cash register. She is expecting her 3rd son. We explained to her we were adopting a little girl from China. She said all of them there are from Fuzhou. She said it is very nice and has good shopping. They are trying to save enough to buy a house for family there. She said it has become a big city and it would cost 100,000 for a house there. I really wish we could have talked more with her but there was a definite language barrier. We had a difficult time understanding what each other was saying. We will definitely have to take Grace there when we get her. It really is a small world.
