Update
It is Monday around 945 pm here in Moscow. We took a boat tour today for 3 hours!! It was a long 3 hours with a 2 year old! Then we took him to McDonald's again!! He still loves the fries! We were also very brave and took the Metro(subway) in Moscow. I can't even begin to explain the subway in Moscow. But, we made it back to our hotel, that's all that matters!! We are counting down the hours until we leave for Atlanta. It is less than 48 hours! Thank everyone for all of their comments and prayers! Please continue to pray for our flight from Moscow to Atlanta!!

Hello
We went to the flea market this morning! It was very similar to our flea markets, except noone speaks English and it is VERY crowded. We bought a few gifts to bring back with us. We then went to Arbat Street, which is mainly for tourists. They have a Hard Rock Cafe, which was awesome and they have ICE!!! Tomorrow we have to register Drew at the Russian Consulate so they will now where he can be located! Other than that we don't have anything much to do. We are just counting down the days until we get to get on that Delta plane and fly home!! Love you guys, please pray for our flight home!!
Love

Hello from Moscow,
Today we walked all the way to Red Square which is about a 40 minute walk from our hotel. On the way we stopped at McDonald's and Drew got his first taste of a cheeseburger happymeal with coke!! He loved the fries the best! It is about 85 degrees here and you have to walk everywhere so we are really sweaty and nasty all of the time. Tomorrow we are going to the flee market with Vladimir. I am not really sure what to expect at the flea market! It is Russia's "independence day" weekend so every night there has been fireworks and parties everywhere! Not much exciting stuff happening here. Drew is doing o.k. He is testing his boundaries with us all of the time. Hopefully this will get better when we get home. Love all of you

Update Day??
Hello from Moscow,
Well, only 5 days left! Thanks for all the support while we have been here! It has been a very long and eventful trip. Drew is doing o.k. It rained today, so we couldn't get out of the hotel to do anything. Tomorrow we are going to go to Red Square and try to find McDonald's. We will go to a flea market with Vladimir, our driver, on Sunday. A flea market in Russia, this should be interesting. We just can't wait to come home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Update Day ????
Hello from Moscow,
It is Thursday at 610 pm. Now we are only 8 hours ahead of you guys instead of 12. Drew is doing well! He is a very active 2 year old, to say the least! The doctor came to check him out this morning at our room. This afternoon we had our appointment at the American Embassy. So, now Drew has his passport and his Visa to come back to the U.S. Tomorrow is a holiday here, so we have to wait until Monday to go to the Russian Consulate to register Drew. OH yeah, Greg and Alan will be happy to know that Drew is probably a leftie!! Tomorrow we are going to try and take Drew to the zoo. Everything in Moscow is so expensive that we can't do a lot of activities here. I almost had to give Timothy mouth-to-mouth in the supermarket because I bought a PEOPLE magazine and it was $27.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought Tim was going to die! Love you guys!

Update Day 20
It is our last night in Kemerovo! I am so sick and tired of this place! We fly out in the morning at 7 am for Moscow. It is about a 4 1/2 hour plane ride. We have our bag packed with toys and food, hopefully enough to keep him occupied. Drew did well today. We took him to the park and he had his first ice cream! You should have seen his face! He did not love it. It is around 9:40 pm here. We have no air conditioning and it is about 85 degrees. Tim and I have only slept about 5 hours in the last 3 days. It is so hot in our room we can't sleep. Anyway, only a week to go but it feels like an eternity!! Please pray for our plane ride in the morning!! Love you guys
