Passport, check. Dr. report, check.

Hello there,
Today we went to get the passport in the morning. It took us an hour to get there because the traffic was very bad. getting a passport in Bogota is very effiecient, if your papers are in order. You get your photos taken. Grab a number from the info lady, pay at the cachier, wait your turn, hand over your papers, answer a few questions and put a finger print in the appropriate boxes. check to make sure it is all correct. Then they print and laminate it right there and your done. Takes about an hour and a half or so. Getting a passport with Jon Felipe was a little more difficult because he did not want to give his photos up. It took a bit of convinceing before he relinquished them to the man behind the desk. having possesions of his own is still a new concept to him and although he usually shares well when asked sometimes you never know how he will react. After lunch we went to see the Dr. who did his residence at St. Jude's Children's Hospital so he knew about Michigan. He prefers the weather here in Bogota. That went well so now we have everything we need to get our visa which we will apply for tomorrow and pick up on Friday the Lord willing. Apperently the US embassy here can be hard to deal with and has an unpredictable schedule, they can close without any warning at any time from what I hear. So everyone pray and e-mail your congress person. Chyerl Kyper is supposed to fly in to Bogota from Ibugue this afternoon and take he daughter to the Dr. tonight and then we can go to the Embassy together tomorrow. Hopefully she is haveing a good trip in.
Love Dwight and the boys
