We went to a lovely dinner tonight at a jiaozi (dumpling) restaurant. It was delicious!!
Then we went out and explored the town with the lights and lanterns and people. It was a lovely night to walk around, and not cold at all (a big change from when we were trying to walk around by the Yellow River).
Jonah also lit a few sparklers in celebration, and he really liked that....and he shared with other kids around him.
Yes, he was safe with all of us adults helping him...see our guide Yisha helping him there.We also received the adoption decree, Grady's birth certificate, and his abandonment certificate in Chinese and English and with many copies today. Yesterday, we got a copy of his finding ad (before kids can be adopted here in China, a finding ad has to be placed here in the paper to see if biological relatives can be located) and his vaccinations. All we still need paperwork-wise here in Lanzhou is Grady's passport. How cool to be moving on with this adoption process!!
Finally, a bit of video from our day:

I am loving the peek into your trip each morning. :) The dumpling restaurant and lanterns sure do make me wish I was there! Oh and that cutie pie baby is enticing as well. LOL
Keep posting. :)
