Hello From Kiev, We are two steps closer to coming home. The train ride to Kiev was fine. The boys were pretty excited on the train. They slept on the top bunks and I had one of the bottom bunks. We bought the entire compartment so it was just us. It was a little smokey though, so my head has been hurting today. I slept some but Sasha didn't sleep much. Their grandfather bought him a pepsi before we left. I am sure he hasn't had caffine for a long time if ever, so of coarse he didn't sleep much. He played his gameboy until the battery died. Then kept me awake by looking down at me.
We got there medicals taken care of today. They have to have physicals in order to get their visas. Jack needed two shots and Sasha needed one. The embassy wasn't open today because it is veterans day-or so the guard told me. So we will go back first thing in the morning and beg them to process the visa in one day.
We went back to the apartment and rested before we ventured out to find food. That's when I bumped into this internet cafe. Oh, the boys are done at the arcade so I had better go. If we get the visa we will fly home on Thursday.
