Guiyang, our hotel view.

Population of about 4 million people.  It's the capital of Guizhou province and is where we met Opal Xiayun and Lola Xiaoyue for the first time, and the next day adopted them officially.  It's the province that also houses the city where the girls were born, Tongren.

Xiao Yun and Xiao Yue

...means Little Cloud and Little Moon. This stage was set up in the lobby of our hotel in Guiyang on our last day there.

No such thing as coincidence.
