We managed to stay awake for a stroll down Old Arabat Street. We both in a dream like state, floating down the 15th Century cobblestone path. Street musicians filled the air with music on a perfect summer night. We'd been travelling for about 20 hours including airport time and logged 12 hours of flight time and 8 hour time change. After a great dinner and a night cap at the Hard Rock we went back to the tiny beds in our room and slept for a good 10 hours. Woke up this morning feeling a little more conscious and are checking out after breakfast and our driver will pick us up for our final flight (2 hours) to Volgograd. I'm not sure what the wifi capabilities are in Volgograd so if we disappear from cyber space, don't worry, we'll be back in touch soon.
Tomorrow the reason for the trip will begin.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) I will formally receive my proposal for Roman then be taken to the orphanage. Tomorrow we will meet my baby bird.
We're coming for you little one, soon little man, your mama will be covering you with kisses. My body is tired but my heart is a flutter. I am fully here, prepared and ready to meet him.

Welcome to my adoption blog. I am a thirty something Canadian Chick in the process of becoming a mommy bird through international adoption. I can't promise that my mind and heart won't wander off topic as I am apt to do and so may my posts. I can promise that I will share with you the joy and pain that is the stuff of all great journeys. The facts and the feelings, the laughter and the tears, the lessons and the bliss.
