Welcome to our online adoption journal. We will be using this to update our friends and family on our adoption.
Well, we had a little problem with our plane tickets for our visit trip. I found out (by complete accident) that Orbitz change our plane tickets from the ones that we booked way back in May. We were supposed to arrive in Guatemala at 10:55 am on 7/27, but instead we were not arriving until 3:55 pm. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper. Not only because I had no notice of the change, but mainly because we would be getting to Guatemala so late. I didn't want the foster mother to say that it would be too late to bring the baby and wait until the next morning. If that happened, it would basically be a wasted day for us. So, I called up Orbitz and the airline and after a fewe hours on the phone (no joking), I got all of our money refunded and I booked another flight. It was only a little bit more money per ticket, but we will arrive in Guatemala by 7:30 am on the 27th and we have a non-stop flight on the way there. I think it's actually a good thing this happened. I talked with our agency and they said that we would probably be able to have Bella in our arms by 10am!!!! WOW!!!!!
So, we got the new plane tickets today and we have confirmation of our hotel room. We are staying at the Westin (another change...previously we were going to stay at the Raddisson, but the Westin has a pool and a casino). We will be staying until 8/2.
