We arrived in Almaty early this morning after a very long day and a half of travel. The apartment was a bit far from things (like food and people that speak English) so we moved to a hotel. It has a couple of bedrooms and a nice sitting area. The kids arrived in the middle of a thunderstorm a couple of hours later than expected. Apparently there was a flat tire involved. Not real clear on those details! Svetlana dropped them off and ordered some soup for them and away she went. It seems to have been a long trip for her as well. All three of the kids got motion sick! Several times!! She says there is a story to tell but she does not have enough English words to tell it. Something about the orphanage has been shut down and we are missing paperwork, but not to worry. Yeah right! Our translator will explain it all tomorrow. Overall the children seem to be happy and exhausted. We just finished the soup and I am going to try to explain "brush your teeth and go to bed".
