Hello All,

Well we made it to Moscow. We checked in at 5:45 pm. What a long day of waiting around in a lobby.

It was nice to have some American things in the hotel, like Cheeseburgers, real Heinz Ketchup, Fries, American TV, USA Today, you get the picture.

Still having a problem with pictures. Will tackle that again tomorrow.

Also, Cathy and I bit the bullet and have been brushing our teeth with the water, I even drink it at this point. No problems so far.

Tomorrow we have to meet a CHI facilitator in the lobby at 9:20 am. We are off to get Alex's medical exam for the US Embassy. That ought to be fun...strange place, undressing him, shots, OH MY! The good news is, after that, just one more hoop to jump through before we head home. YAY!

Well, signing off for now. It's been a trying night and we are headed off to bed.

Our love to everyone~
