Hong Kong!!!

We rode a two hour train from Guangzhou to Hong Kong for our last night of this adoption journey.

It was really neat to see the country side as we made our way.

When we got to Hong Kong we were kinda surprised!!

It was a really beautiful city.

This was our fourth city on the trip but by far the most beautiful. We stayed in a hotel right on the water in the harbour. It was super nice.

We had not been swimming yet so we decided to take Olivia Grace swimming.

At first she wasnt too thrilled but she quickly began to trust us and would lay completely on her back with not an ounce of stress in her little body.

We couldn't get over the transformation in her.

It had been a little over a week since she was in an orphanage in Southern China.

A little over a week ago since she had a family, her family!!

A little over a week since these two tall white people came in and rocked her world.

Now she was in a nice swimming pool over looking the China Sea with two people who adore her.

And she looked back at them with love and trust.

The view from the room.

This is the view from the pool!! Really beautiful!!!

 

***One funny story.....Chris kept saying, "Olivia, look its water....it's agua."

He kept saying it.....I just looked at him and said you do know she is Chinese....and doesn't really know Spanish..... He said, "Duh....but would continue to throw Spanish at her""it was too cute.....lol
