Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed! This is Blaine on his very first plane ride. He was really excited and thought flying was really cool. We took 4 flights total to arrive in Khabarovsk: a 1 hour, a 2 1/2 hour, an 11 hour, and an 8 hour flight.
After the 3rd flight was over, we stood in line forever in passport control and customs, found out none of our suitcases had made the flight, took a very frightening ride through Moscow to another airport, and waited there about 8 hours for our next flight. Not looking so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed anymore are they? We then got on the flight to Khabarovsk and I've never been on a hotter airplane. They only served coffee and hot tea and when I asked for water they would pour me half of a tiny cup. We were so ready to get off that flight! We layed down for a "nap" yesterday at about 5:00 pm and woke up at 1:00 in the morning. We went back to sleep a few hours later for the rest of the night. We are looking forward to a good night's rest tonight and are feeling so good about our court decision and that our baggage was finally located.

We are so happy for y'all! Congratulations! Sorry you had trouble with your bags. One day it will probably be something to look back on and laugh about but I'm sure right now it is awful. Bet you can't wait until you get to go get Valerie! Hope the rest of your stay goes smoothly! ~ Melea
