Our China Trip!

After waiting for just under 12 months to get our referral we travelled to China in late July/early August of 2006. We were delighted that Hector's mother, Joan, would be travelling with us to share in this incredible experience. We left Canada on July 24th and returned on August 11th. We created a blog and were we were able to post photos and travel updates during our trip for family & friends to follow along on our journey. You can still read those entries in the archives under July and August. The blog is also where we will be posting updated photos of our daily adventures with Maggie.
