Today our visas arrived! There is always a huge sense of relief when I put my hands back on our passports, knowing they are once again safe and secure in my possession.
To receive a visa, a person must send their US passport and visa application (and $$ of course) to the consulate (in the US) of the foreign country they will be visiting. In our case, our passports went to the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco. Last year, since we were visiting both Vietnam and China, our passports went to the consulates of both Vietnam and China. Not all countries require a visa for admittance.
A visa is simply a sticker placed within the passport pages, stating that permission has been granted to visit their country.
Last year we needed a complicated array of visas.
This trip only 3 people are traveling to 1 country (Rose, Hubby and I). Easy peezy!
One more step complete--visas? Check!
