On the Road Again

Momma and I caught the plane to Atlanta and we're writing from the airport en route to Moscow in an hour and a half. Momma's an old hat at travel now - even brought a backpack to have her hands free. We had a nice lunch and are just waiting around now.

We arrive in Moscow at 10:30 in the morning, have a day to chill out and shop, then catch a 10 PM overnight train to the children's region. This will definitely be a new experience, but we will definitely be looking forward to having our own cabin with a horizontal surface to lie on and a bathroom down the hall to the van ride that was so eloquently recorded in Momma's prayer journal last trip. We're definitely thankful that we don't get to check that out this time. Besides, I'm guessing D and M haven't ever ridden a train so they'll probably think its pretty cool! We're really looking forward to the new experiences with them - right away!

We'll be updating in a couple of days after 6000 miles by air and maybe 350 by train!

This is so exciting - so thankful to see what the Lord has in store for us the next 10 days before we arrive back at home sweet home!
