Chillin' in Almaty

After a month in Uralsk, it is nice to be in a big city again. Almaty is beautiful with lots of trees and big parks, and we're in a great location across from a mall with an ice skating rink.

The kids did great on the three-hour flight here. There were babies cyring on the plane, but not ours!

Our interview with the US Embassy is Wednesday, so that should be the last piece of the puzzle, and we expect to fly home Thursday. We only have dial-up Internet in our apartment, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to post again. See everyone soon!

Chris,Sherry,Julian,Jonna and Shoshi,

When will you actually be home(in Florida)?

We can't wait to see all of you and meet Jonna.

We certainly know you'll need to get some rest after your long trip so let us know what works for you.

Thank you for keeping us up to date with your journey.

Love,
Mindy

The clock tells me you're leaving soon for your interview. I know all will go well and tomorrow you come home!

I will be watching this space so we can celebrate your happy return to your house. I'd love to hear what Jonna thinks of it. Did you tell me she'll be sharing a room with Julian?

Love,

-- Jillian

Can't wait to see you! You should be back in Florida by now if everything went well. Please email when you want to get together, after you're rested. And if you're jet lagged and up at 4 a.m., chances are we are too but, unfortunately, not from traveling the world :).

See you soon and congratulations again!
Elizabeth
