Welcome
Dear Friends and Family,
We have decided to start a blog to keep you informed and also to help us remember the wonderful journey we are on. As of today we are set to take our first trip to Moscow, Russia on February 23rd. We accepted the referral of a two year old girl and have no other information about her.We need your prayers and your support means everything to us!
Love Brad and Maureen

We're Here! Day 1 Trip 3
We arrived in Moscow at 10:30am Moscow Time (2:30am NY Time) and we were tired. The first two trips we flew Aeroflot (Russian Airline), but this time we traveled with Delta. We really missed flying with Aeroflot. To keep it short we are on very little sleep. To make things worse I had anticipated traffic and flight delays so I didn't ask to make our check-in time for the apartment any earlier than their regular check-in time of 2:00. So, we ended up getting to the apartment at 12:00 and they couldn't get anyone to drop the key off until 2:00. Lucky we have the kindest driver and drove us to McDonalds which I know Maureen as been wanting to see if it tasted any different. NOPE. Same old heat lamp burgers. We eat lunch then headed back the apartment to wait out front with our driver in the car. Maureen had a nice nap and when we finally got back up stairs I then passed out for an hour. After I had a nice nap and Maureen still passed out. I decided to venture out. We still need to get stuff for when bring Karina "home" to the apartment tomorrow. I'll be honest since we are staying in a different part of Moscow then our last 2 trips I was a little scared of getting lost. I was able to find where things were and not get lost. Yeah, you might want to read that sentence again. Thats right, I said it I didn't get lost. Got back to the apartment and we made some dinner watch tv. I'm happy this apartment nice selction of english speaking channels. Well, we have to go it ready for our big day tomorrow.

I am so happy for you! Enjoy your time in Moscow with your little girl. Make sure you get plenty of pictures of her while in Moscow.
I know what you mean between Delta and Aeroflot. We enjoyed our Aeroflot flight better and once you land back at JFK the Aeroflot terminal and Delta terminal is like night and day.
