Count down to travel departure

Although I've worked in high tech and the internet for years, I am still in awe of what it can do...witness the power of getting pictures of your new daughter through a service with ties to China and the States...cameras are sent to Genevieve's orphanage, retrieved, developed, photos scanned and in a matter of days, I have snapshots of her life a month ago in Beihai.
Here is one shot of her clapping in the mirrow of the playroom in the orphanage...I am greedily viewing the other 32 or so shots for clues to her personality and character and combing the details of the rooms and landscape that have formed her life for the last 15 months. Soon I won't have to settle for these digital dreams but will be hugging her close in real life.
