Zaporozhye

We are here! The drive was LONG. and BUMPY. and FAST. But, we are here, safe and sound. :) We knew we were no longer in Kiev when we saw goats and cows grazing on the edge of the highway. We stoppped halfway and ate at McDonalds. Yum-yum. We had fried shrimp, a "Coke Light" (no ice), and of course, fries.

Tomorrow's plan is to arrive at orphanage early... We are looking forward to what God is going to do!


We will post again tomorrow with lots of pictures.

    Aimee--

    I have been a little quite but following faithfully these last few weeks. LOTS of prayers have been made for you two as you travel across the world to help bring these children to their forever families. God bless you both! Safe travels to you both....

    Praying that God will open the eyes of their hearts---"their" meaning of course the children, but also those who are called to adopt thess precious ones. Be confident, dear ones...God is faithful. Hugs, nana J

    Fried Shrimp at McDonalds? It that the Ukraine of the Gulf Coast in Florida? ;) Or the south in general-- you know we will fry anything. In Hawaii they had fried spam on the menu. LOL!

    Coke Light. Yummy.
