Sitting in the airport...

Today has been a long day. Val, our driver and translator from the agency, met us at breakfast. He took us to another hotel to meet two more American couples to complete more paperwork. One of those couples is flying out with us tonight to Siberia. They are adopting a 26-month old girl from an orphanage 3 1/2 hours outside of Kemerovo. After completing our paperwork, we went to the bank to exchange dollars for rubles. Then to the hospital to get our medical exam. One bright spot of our day is that we only had to see 7 doctors instead of the scheduled 8. We then had an early supper and drove 2 hours to the airport (this time I was in front!) We are now sitting in the airport with our new friends, Daniel and Stacy, from Louisiana. Our flight leaves at 11:40pm - it's a 4 hour flight. When we touch down in Kemerovo, it will be 6:40am Kemerovo time. We'll be at the orphanage at Noon to visit Danil! Please keep praying for us...God has blessed us every step of the way and we are so hopeful about the days ahead of us in Kemerovo...
