Hi,
David and I finally arrived to Petro. The trip was very smooth and people have been very nice. We met Illya and Nicolai and we are waiting to see "the boy"( Kirril). We are waiting also to give the presents because we only saw Illya for a little while. All individuals involved in this trip so far have been very professional. The food is great and the coffee, most importantly, strong to our liking!! The 5 hour or so car ride from St. Petersburg is beautiful. Very heavily wooded with too numerous to count aspen and pine trees. We spotted a few good places to stop to take care of business along the way. Nikolai speaks enough English for one to communicate reasonably well.
We will have a nice opportunity to get to know Petro today. We recommend the Budweiser Czeck beer for those who like beer, once you get here, or back here for your second visit, as the case may be.
We will keep you posted.
David and Celia

So glad to hear from you. The trip over being uneventful is a good thing. I remember meeting the most interesting people and they were always fascinated about the whole Russian adoption experience.
All is well here. Todd, Billy, Alex, Nic and Em are all fine. Todd and Billy are MIA today, but then, what else is new? Work this evening...cool evening, probably rain.
Talked to Lex yesterday and all is well. She in thinking about staying in Paris for the entire year.
You are blessed to travel. Take care and write again as soon as you can.
Thought I would give Ruth a call and check on the girls.
