Today we had to get meet our guide in the lobby at 8.30am. No mean task when you have a little one who loves her sleep. Mae slept very well and wanted to dally over her morning bottle. Unfortunately, Mum was wondering at which point she could shower, dress and apply the make-up. By 8am Jude was knocking at our door reminding us that we had 30mins for breakfast. Mum still had to dress Mae but the make-up had to give!
Not only did she take a full bottle but she ate a massive amount of scrambled egg for breakfast. She certainly loves her food.
Off again to the Civil Affairs Office for an interview and final paperwork to legalise the adoption and then another interview and more paperwork with the notary (very odd little Chinese man who kept asking me questions in a Chinese-English accent which I just couldn't understand!). At one point he appeared to be telling our guide off for missing paperwork - we kept calm but it was very unnerving. Eventually, we left with all the relevant paperwork AND our daughter.
We spent the rest of today checking out Shamien Island.
