11/4 - Arrive in Beijing. China is 13 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time.
11/5 - Tour Beijing including The Great Wall and Ming Tombs.
11/6 - Leave Beijing for Hefei.
11/7 - 'GOTCHA DAY' Keegan is brought to us at our hotel.
11/8 - Adoption registration, Notarization and apply for Keegan's passport. Sounds like a fun day.
11/9 - Optional shopping trip.
11/10 - Optional tours available. Not sure of destinations yet.
11/11 - Receive Keegan's passport.
11/12 - Leave Hefei for Guangzhou.
11/13 - Rest, shop, tour.
11/14 - Keegan's physical and visa photo taken today. Group meeting to ensure paperwork for consulate appointment.
11/15 - U.S. Consulate appointment.
11/16 - Go to U.S. Consulate to take oath in afternoon.
11/17 - Fly from Guangzhou to Hong Kong. Leave Hong Kong for Chicago then to Lexington. That's alot of flying with a child on our laps. Hopefully she'll be sleepy, really sleepy.
We're told we will have a bunch of free time to explore the cities or just hang out.
