Fog

Did you know that when it is really foggy planes cannot land or take-off?

We had been praying that we could get out of Volgograd on Thursday by plane so that we could make the appointment with the US embassy on Friday. I think that it was the foggiest that we ever saw the airport.

There was only one plane on the ground, a small puddle jumper. Yes, you know the kind, or perhaps you don't. We boarded from the rear and hand carried ALL of our luggage on board. It sat in the very front of the plane (big black bag, green bag, small roller board, backpack, Beth's carry-on, and a stroller), plus two kids.

We arrived safely in Moscow and were greated by our Moscow driver and case worker in Russia. They took us safely to our hotel, but not before Jacob decided to be car-sick. Projectile vomiting...

Isn't it nice to take a hot shower? Thats exactly what we did and went to bed.
