We are assisting in the guarding of the palace! lol

Tomorrow we meet our dear daughter, Jia!! Today, while we waited for our big meeting, we passed the time with some more fun sight seeing:) Here is a QUICK (because I'm too tired to go into detail....lol) rundown.

After breakfast we met our kind tour guide (a college student, that volunteers for Holt). We also had the privilege of meeting, and going on the tour with, another family who is also meeting their son tomorrow. They are a great couple, and we feel blessed to have been able to meet a such a nice family (they brought their sweet daughter Gracie with them to Korea). We began the tour with a trip to the Gyeongbok palace and then ate a delicious Korean lunch. After lunch we had a little tour of a shopping area near our hotel. We then proceeded to the Seoul tower which is an outlook point over the city of Seoul. The Seoul Tower is the #1 spot for engagements in Seoul. There are cable wires and fencing that people attach a lock to and then throw the key off the mountain. It signifies eternal love, because the lock can never be undone. We brought a lock from home and attached it to symbolize our love as a family. We kept one key to save for Jia and threw the other one over the rail....although it landed in a grass area by some steps......lol....maybe someone will brush it off a little further into the wooded area:).

The pictures you have all been waiting for will be posted tomorrow!! Please be praying for a great meeting, that she has an easy transition and will feel comfortable with us. We are also praying that her foster family has peace as they say goodbye to sweet little Jia.
