Officially a Schaadt!



Wednesday, April 06, 2016

Our little princess officially became a Schaadt today!  We returned to the Civil Affairs office to sign our paperwork and use the red stamp and all and then had to go over the notary office to…well…get everything notarized!  The notary office was nothing but 5 floors of wall to wall people.   People.everywhere.  People in the halls, in small offices, in big waiting areas, in the stairways…all over!  I asked our guide, and she said that that office is the only place in the entire city to get anything notarized, so no going to the bank or taking something a few cubicles down from where you sit to get it notarized.  I think they gave us a special little treatment, because we were in and out within 20 minutes or so.  Ahem, that could’ve had something to do with the screaming and impatient little lady we had with us who wanted nothing to do with being confined in such a small and crowded place.  



 


After we got back to the hotel, we walked over to KFC to grab a quick lunch and then took a walk.  I don’t think I’ve mentioned it yet, but our little lady is used to spending lots of time outside, and she loves walking.  It was a beautiful day, so we walked and found a park where we got lots of fun stares from the locals!  After about walking a mile or so herself, she finally stopped and looked like she was going to do a forward face plant on the sidewalk, so the Mister picked her up.  Within about a nano second, she was taking her beauty rest.  Precious!  We headed out for pizza for dinner at the mall right around the corner from our hotel, (which we may know now better than the locals,) and then walked all three floors before going back to the hotel.  The little lady didn’t throw up too much of a fight for bedtime tonight, and slept great!
