Day 1.2 Welcome to Kiev

Ahh, welcome to Kiev.  After a long day of flying we've arrived in Kiev. The flights were all on time and uneventful. As soon as we stepped out of customs our driver was waiting and whisked us away in a fashion that only Mario Andretti (or any other Ukrainian driver) would appreciate. We are settled in to our small apartment which is located only a block off the city center. The best part of the apartment is the WIFI!!!! We weren't expecting any wifi at our apartment so this
was very welcome. We were able to have a brief conversation via Skype with the girls and it did wonders to be able to hear their voices. 

We'll surely post more tomorrow, but let me give you an idea of how we're praying this week pans out - so that you can pray for the same.
1) Wednesday 9am, appointment with State Department of Adoptions
2) Thursday afternoon, pick up invitation to visit Marina and her orphanage director
3) Friday, early morning - travel by train to Oleksandriia and then taxi to Marina's orphanage for appointment

Those are the big three things that we need to happen this week. 

I am pretty exhausted so I think this is a great place to end the post.
