Our last day in Irkutsk

Today is finally our last day in Irkutsk...we will leave tomorrow morning at 9am to travel to Moscow. While we are in Moscow Tatiana will have a medical exam and will receive her visa to travel to the US. We will leave Moscow on the morning of the 25th and travel for around 24 hours. We will get to Grand Rapids the evening of the 25th.

I am excited to be another step closer to home... to Jared, Caleb and Kevin... and to finally show Tatiana her home. We will spend our last day here preparing to leave and we will visit the playground one more time. The flight to Moscow is five hours long...I am hoping that Tatiana will do well on the flight!

Tomorrow I will not be able to post on the blog until the evening...( I typically post in the morning) I am told that there is internet access at the hotel we are staying in!---So that's all from Irkutsk we are off to Moscow!--Melanie
