Finally… the wait is over
We finally got our visas this afternoon…. Hurrrrraaaayyyyyyy!!!! 
The procedures are much simpler now as compared to the past. We are not required to start queueing at the entrance of the US Embassy early in the morning anymore. We can actually book our interview time slot through the internet and just be present at the entrance 20 minutes before the scheduled appointment time. This way is so much better as it can be a real hassle if you are bringing a baby/toddler with you. Another good news is that, we need not bring our kids (14 and below) for the interview…. I did not know this earlier or I won’t have to bring Darrius with me…. was lucky he was a good boy yesterday… 
Once inside, we still need to get another Q-number. Interviews are still being done through the various counters in the consular service room. Staff are friendly too.
If your visa is approved, the interviewer will give you a green card and tell you to collect your passport the next day at the entrace of the embassy between 2-3 pm.
We are glad that they granted us the 10 years multiple entries visa.
So, here we come America!!!

how does the new embassy looks like? I heard of their renovation some time back, and wonder if it is still the same…
Let me start beating the dust off the red carpet.
Kew,
The place still look the same. Guessed they only do some minor reno and mostly repainting.
Maybe some hidden security features in the walls??
SA,
