I think I may have found a way to update our site. We will see. Apparently all blog sites are restricted here and you have to be creative to find a way to get to them let alone update them.
Things are going well here. We went the market yesterday for the experience of it and let me tell you an experience it was :). There are no traffic laws here that I can tell, and there are thousands of scooters on the road amongst the cars and people. How we haven't seen a wreak yet amazes me. The prices here are amazing. Yesterday Angie exchanged some US currency for some Vietnamese notes. 100 dollars is worth 1,580,000 dongs. So I guess you could say in Vietnam we are millionaires :) lol.
The hotel owners and her family are absolutely amazing people. They speak English well and their sons speak English very well and have been helping us out. Her oldest son went with us to the market and we were able to purchase 2 silver brackets for Brooklyn for around 10.00 us dollars.
We get our daughter tomorrow at 8:30 am with a 2 hour drive to get to the Provence she is in. We are very excited.
I will try and update some photos later but I have no idea if I will find a way to make that happen through all the restrictions on the web here.
We miss you all,
Jacob and Angie

Off we go...........
Well it has been a busy couple of days. We have had to do a lot, and I mean a lot, of last minute running around to insure everything is ready, but I think we are ready........OK at least I hope we are ready. :)
On top of all that I found out I have bronchitis, but at least I was able to get some medication before we left.
We fly out tonight for a 17 hour flight then a lay over and another 2 hour flight. At least that how I think it goes. I was going to be much worse, but our travel agent was able to get us, in all cases, a better flight. We will be met at the airport by a representative for the adoption agency and after that I have no clue. We are hoping to be able to go to the orphanage but it looks like that may not be able to happen before the ceremony.
We are very excited and it is hard to believe the time is here.
We will try and keep everyone up to date when we get there.
Again keep us in your prayers and away we go………
