The Last Lima Embassy Visit

So, as many of you know, Hugo and I have been on a long Visa road with the U.S. embassy. Everything culminated with his visit last week, on the 15th to be precise. We were scheduled at 7:30am. When we arrived at 7:15am, the line to enter the embassy was already halfway down the block. We entered, got our number and sat in the crowded waiting room. Had to pay the small $400 fee and then wait again. Other families, individuals and couples were called into the last room, that felt like it could have been a mini prison. Vaulted door. Complete privacy. We waited almost 3 hours before we were finally called at 10:30am. We went in the room, with clamy hands, to meet our fate.

To make a long story short, our fate is to travel to Minnesota together next spring, March 2010. The not-knowing is over! If you are reading this from MN, we will see you soon!
