Indoor Camping

Thomas has decided staying in Russia is like camping indoors. Today I filled the bathtub and did our laundry in there. We have clothes lines thru the bathroom. One interesting thing is all the hotels that are nicer have these warming racks for their towels. So that helps. We also have paper plates and plastic silverware and such.

The hotel put the Americans all on the same floor and sometimes it feels like college with an open door policy when we stand out and all talk and meet each other in the hallway. The other two couples when to court today and are on their way back to Moscow to go home. Right now, I am not sure if sitting here waiting is better or worse than the 35 hour travel time to go home to wait the 10 days.

We did a bit of exploring and shopping today and tomorrow there is a flea market Thomas wants to check out. It is a bit of hike, but what else do we have to do. He did get Ally's plane tickets yesterday even thought we don't have her new birth certificate yet. Our first documents with her new name. Again, we just do what we are told. :-)

Keep the comments and emails coming - we are starting to get home sick a bit.
