New map of Russia

So, here is a lovely map of Russia that I got from our friends, Elle & D. They are adopting from Khabarovsk, which is on the far right marked with the arrow. We are adopting from Kaliningrad which is the arrow on the far left. Could our children be any farther away from each other?? Opposite ends of Russia.

As I have mentioned before...Kaliningrad is on the Baltic Sea in between Lithuania & Poland. And that is where we will be in just 3.5 days!! With our son!! Amazing!

Rough few days with paperwork and stress levels (mine) and trying to get everything done so we can fly out...you would not believe how much there is to do.

Going out to dinner with some friends in a little bit...really need the distraction and some laughs.

Kaliningrad is that little piece of Russia that is disconnected from the main body? You must be so excited! I pray that everything will go smoothly for you.

Yep :) It is all the way over there and not attached to Russia. It used to be German-occupied.

I think there are only 2 places in Russia that could be farther away from Kalingrad than Khabarovsk. Amazing! Only 3.5 days and Happy Birthday Roman!!
