Hi guys,
Just a short note today. We took some time to go play tourist with our translator Luba. We took public transportation down to see some churches in Kiev. St. Andrews, which I'd read about looked nice, but was closed. St. Sophia's was open and was really amazing. Following that we walked about 2000 miles to a restuarant and had a late lunch.
We are so whipped from walking that it isn't even funny. Both of us are exhausted and stopped by the internet cafe mainly to take a break in walking back to the apartment.
Here's the number to the phone in our apartment here in Kiev - 380-44-565-3906. The 380 is the country code, 44 is the city code and the rest is the actual local phone number. How you dial it from the US - well, if I were there to try it, I'd tell you.
Seriously - if you do feel like giving us a call, we'd appreciate it, but it is going to be fairly expensive, so we understand for anyone that doesn't. And for those of you that do, we understand that you need to keep it short. Please also keep in mind that we are 8 hours ahead of you right now. At I right this it is after 5pm here, but it is only 9 am in Indiana. Not that we'd not like to hear from you, but Pam is awfully grumpy when you wake her up at 2am.
That's going to be our phone number for at least another week and maybe we'll have the cell phone issue resolved before we move on to a region. We'll post more tomorrow.

Mornin' Guys! Or I guess the greeting would be "Evenin'"! Seems strange to think you have already put in most of the day today and it is only 10:45 am here. Just wondering if the couple from your neighborhood are home now or are they still over there too? Are they anywhere that you could meet them for some socializing? Will you be able to meet any other of the prospective parents or are you the only ones there right now? Didn't know if they only schedule one couple at a time and no one else will arrive until you have left. Did you actually make an appointment for the 15th to return to the Center or will they call you when they decide to give you an appointment and tell you of time and date? I am so excited for you and praying everything goes smoothly from here out.
Take Care
Darlene
