Yuppieeeee, I was so sure that is coming today, the most beautiful bell ring: the post man. :dance: :dance: I got the passport and the brown envelope right here. I noticed that they put a canceled stamp on the 10 year US tourist visa I had on my passport and the mysterious brown envelope has a corner cut off I guess for the papers to fit in there.

Now, I am ready to go to my husband! :dance: :dance: :dance:
