YAY for Travel Notices

FINALLY. Our travel notices arrived to CCAI (our agency) today. They have faxed the U.S. Consulate in Guangzhou and requested appointments for the week of August 28th. If the Consulate accepts the request, we will be leaving the United States around August 17th. The Consulate can take up to five business days to reply to our request. Once we have their response, our agency will build an itinerary and we can make arrangements for international travel (they do all the in-country travel arrangements for us).

So this means that by next Monday, August 7th, we will have Travel Authorizations and a better idea of when we will be meeting our precious Marcie (who will have just turned 9 months old when we are in China).

Yay.
