Getting closer to home

Our guides filed all of our paperwork this morning at the American consulate. We had to stay in our rooms for about 2 hours until everything was done just in case there was a question and they needed to contact us quickly. We spent more time this afternoon on Shaiman Island shopping and browsing. Then we ate dinner at a Thai restaurant called The Banana Leaf. It was very good food. They have signing and dancing to entertain you while you dine. It was a lot of fun. One of the girls even had David get up and dance with her. The days are winding down and we are looking forward to going home. Tomorrow we have a swearing in ceremony at the US consulate and then we are free to go. But we will not leave until Friday.
