Strike Update

The judge's strike in Colombia is still going on. Good news is that they met for some negotiations yesterday and decided on some terms. From what I understand from the article in El Tiempo (Bogota newspaper) the judicial union is going to have some meetings and then accept or not accept the agreement from the government. I'm assumming that if they don't accept it they will enter into more negogiations. The union will give their answer at the earliest tomorrow and the latest on Friday morning. Here is the translated article for anyone who is super interested in the details.

So how does this affect us? Well, our adoption agency yesterday told us that at this point we are still a go to leave on Saturday. This can change if negotiations break down or things just aren't looking good. Even though we meet Elkin on Monday, our case won't enter the court until a week after that. So that gives a week for everything to get up and running if negogiations are accepted this week.
