Unfortunately, the Pho Thu officials are not cooperating. Our local agency staff here explains that they are "irresponsible" and "lazy." Corrupt is also a word that was tossed about. Fortunately, this behavior on average seems to last between 1-3 days, so we are hopeful we will receive Lulu on ,Tuesday or Wednesday. Please pray for us and especially her. It literally breaks our hearts that she cannot be with us, that she is laying in the orphanage another night. But we know that God will get her to us, and we hold onto that hope.
We did explore the city a bit today after finding out that we would not go to Pho Thu. I have to say, the traffic here has a life of its own. The sheer number of motor scooters is astonding, and the traffic patterns are non-existent. Most of the time they happily co-exist - but one of our cab drivers today did run over a bicyclist! Everyone was fine.
We are exhausted - more tomorrow - and hopefully good news.
Love,
Joni & Aaron
