FIrst trip to Russia!!! First time to see the kiddos!!!

Our first trip to Russia (the Russian Federation) will be on Saturday Dec 3.  This will be when we meet Grace and Parker for the first time.  How exciting!!!!

We fly out in the morning and arrive Sunday afternoon to St. Petersburg.  We will be staying there overnight and flying up to Arkhangelsk Monday evening.

On Tuesday, they will bring Grace and Parker to see us at the hotel.  We cannot visit the town of Severodvinsk where the orphanage is because it is a military base.  Non-Russian citizens cannot enter the base.  We are not yet sure how long we will be able to visit with them, but it will probably be for a couple of hours.  They will then bring them back again on Wednesday for another visit.

We will return to St. Petersburg for a day to sight-see, and fly home on the 9th.
