We started our day at 3am... not on purpose, our bodies are just very confused. So we lay staring at the ceiling of our hotel room for about 3 hours, listening to the people outside scraping the two inches of new snow off the sidewalks. After breakfast, we napped for a couple hours until it came time to meet our facilitator. We spent the next several hours running around the city getting paperwork in order to be ready for our next trip. By the time we finished all this, we missed our window to go to the orphanage. No baby fix today. Tomorrow will be our last day with her, and then begins the torture of living without her for the next 30 days. Bummer.
Bought out the O’КЕЙ supermarket of Russian chocolate! It's like a super-WalMart. We did stock up for some other stuff to eat in our hotel room too. We've saved some money by not eating out as much, and we've been able to try some cool Russian foods. I can tell our 'Gotcha Day' celebrations will be filled with lots of good Russian fare, how fun! We also have some leads on recipes for some of the things we've been eating.
Took a nice nap this afternoon, so maybe we'll be tired when it's actually time to be sleeping here. Talked to our kiddo's like usual on Skype. Some nights the internet speed is good, other nights it comes and goes. Still very nice for them and us to be able to see how each other is doing.
