We haven't been able to post for a couple of days as we have been traveling. Yesterday, we took a long train ride from the Southern part of the province (where we were in Nanning) to the Northern part of the province arriving in a city called Guilin. While the train ride was very long, we passed through some beautiful mountains and farm land. Guilin is quite different from the other two cities - Beijing and Nanning. It is a tourist destination and is surrounded by incredibly lush mountains that are stunning in formation. We took Taya on a boat down the Lijiang River that goes through many of these incredible mountains earlier today. It was really cool.
Taya seems to get slightly better each day, but it is a slow process. She still doesn't want anything to do with anyone except Brooke and we often look at her and feel bad as we can see the sadness in her eyes. But, she also laughed for the first time today and actually let Brooke put her down to play (Brooke just couldn't move an inch or she would cry). As you will see in one of the pictures below, she continues to warm up to me quite nicely...ok, maybe not.

Brooke was planning to do most of this blog, but since she has nearly full-time Taya duty right now (which we would both love to see change), I get blog duty.

Here are a few pictures from the last couple of days.

Hang in there dad. She will warm up to you before you know it.
Taya is beautiful.
