We made it!

We are in Moscow! The hotel is very nice and for the most part the trip was uneventful. However in Fort Myers airport they took our carryon suitcase with our coats and the baby photo album and toys in it. They took it at the gate but checked it through to Moscow. Guess what didn't make it? Yes, that suitcase. We are grabbing showers since it is 1:00 p.m. and eating some ramen noodles then heading out to try and replace the stuff before it gets too cold. Kind of scary but we can do the orphanage visits without all of it. It is in the 30's today so it is cold but not too bad in layers. We do have our gloves, hats and scarves. We shall see! Wish us luck!

More in the morning!

Sorry about the luggage, that sucks!! There is a nice clothes store half way between the Tverskaya and Red Square on the left side, that had nice sports wear, Kevin and i both bought rain coats when it was rainy and cold in Kirov.

Cant wait to hear how how the visit goes with the little man!!
Best wishes and stay warm!

I am sorry to hear about the luggage, especially the jackets! Glad you had a good flight. Good luck with your visits and I can't wait to hear all about it. (Sorry I missed you on IVFC before you left).

Hi Tanya and Don-
Glad to hear you made it safely. My Mom called today and said things went fairly smoothly on the way over with the exception of your one suitcase. I can't wait to hear all the details of your little guy. I bet you are just counting down the hours/minutes until you can meet him.
Take care!
Love, Jenny
