our pre adoption thailand trip .........

I know how other people felt now keeping an adoption blog…. The process I so drawn out that you can go for ages with nothing to write about…. But today we have a little something to write about..


We have been able to get some monies together to enable us to do a pre adoption Thailand trip – yeah!- we hoped we could but weren’t sure about funds – but again God provides.
We have gone to several travel agents and to be completely honest they have been so unhelpful that they were one step away from being rude and having me ask to see the manager.
So when Stuart mentioned going to see travel agents to check out our trip plans and dates – I wasn’t that excited – but quietly prayed God would help us….. We went to a couple of big name places and again - no help at all …
I remembered a little private agent in our local town that we had gone into all excited when we committed to adopt from Thailand and snagged a brochure on the Far East – so we could dream gazing at pictures of Thailand and the people n the pics…

Well it was like night and day – they guy was almost excitable he was so helpful – and helped us make a great plan for a trip all within the budget we hoped to stay within……..

So it looks like Jan 2009 we will be heading to Thailand just a couple weeks before our 9th wedding anniversary ……….hooray………..

Now we can actually flick through the brochures and know in 5 months we will actually be there….thank you God………

ps. also when we got home from the travel agents we had an email that had just arrived from someone that was on our intercountry adoption training with us....timing....
