Visit Trip- Day 7

Friday morning was our last morning with our sweet girl and I had quite a few outfits that she hadn't worn...so I decided we needed to have a fashion show!!!! She was such a trooper throughout all of the outfit changes!!! I had so much fun!!!

After our fashion show...we went to breakfast and then just hung out for awhile. Around 11 am...it was time to hand her back...Ilsa, her son and daughter and Olga's fosterbrother came, Max our attorney was there and Pedro the translator. Ilsa was so sweet...she brought Benjamin a soccer outfit, Joe a soccer jersey and she also brought me a small bowl. Benjamin was so excited about his outfit...he put it on right in the lobby of the Marriott!!!

Oh...giving the baby back was harder than I ever imagined. Benjamin was so sad he almost had tears in his eyes...he said he didn't want her to go...I, of course, cried harder when I saw how sad he was!!!

Upon being babyless...we finished packing up and got ready to go to Antigua for the weekend. Jacobo picked us up and drove us to Antigua where we checked into Hotel Casa Azul....what a gorgeous place!!!!

We walked around a little...in the rain and stopped at Burger King for dinner...yep...fast food in Guatemala!!! After dinner we just went back and hung out at the room.

Nighttime was quite the experience in our hotel room...as we were right on the street level across from a bar. It was loud, but really neat to see and hear all of the sights and sounds!!!
