As we continue to wait for our courtdate, I might as well share another story of Trip #1.
Keep in mind, during our trip we never met up with our luggage. On the second day while in Moscow we decided to do some sight seeing. Afterall, how often does one make it to Russia? Natually, we chose to visit Red Square.
Red Square was a wonderfully cool place to look around but it was a tremendous hike from where our hotel was. In all, we ended up walking about 4 1/2 hours to Red Square and back. The funny part was we chose to take our carry-on luggage with us as we were paranoid that we were going to loose what little possesions we still had. Below you can see Katie (in the same outfit as all the other pictures that we've shared over the past few weeks) and her HUGE Booty-backpack.

goes to show you really don't need much???!!! hope you have better luggage luck next time!
Hi,
My wife and I adopted a little boy in July 2002 from the same orphanage in Novokuznetsk. He is 5 years old now and a wonderful, happy child. Like you, the airline lost our luggage for most of the trip - which we got back when we returned to Moscow. We now also have another little boy who we adopted locally in 2005 and our family is complete. All in all it is/was a great experience and we cannot be happier.
Good luck with your court date.

What? Huh? For a second I thought I read 4 1/2 hours! Who walks for 4 1/2 hours --- with a backback the size of New Jersey on their back?
Who? Only a paranoid woman desperate to keep her few belongings for four more days of travel. Believe me, it got heavy and hot on the way back.
