A weekend in Kazan....we offically started the ten day countdown
on Saturday following the Friday Court Session. We enjoyed two visits
at the orphange to see Kyle on Saturday and each and every day, he
gets more and more attached. In fact, at the end of visit two on Saturday,
he did not, for the first time, want to go back to his room. Once he got to
his room and realized it was dinner time, he was fine. We woke up on
Sunday and the sun was shining...it was a beautiful day in Kazan. The
picture you see is of a frozen Volga River and there are guys who look
like Penguins who sit on the ice, drill a hole in the ice and fish. In the
distance, you can see the Kremlin and with the sun shining today, it was
the prettiest day yet. Suprisingly, despite the beautiful sun reminiscent
of a perfect day in Florida, it was also the coldest day at 4 Degrees
Farenheit. We were only allowed one visit because it is Sunday and
we had a great time today...we danced and Kyle gave me a big kiss :)
Dad and I went to an art gallery and had lunch with our interpreter,
Jane. We also took a walk nearby our hotel but it was too cold for me!
We hope that this week goes by quickly and that we return home soon!
