Day 9




Today they were making clay pots when we got there. They were very secretive with their pots, Stephen had to work hard to get the pictures today. Every time he went to take a picture they tried to turn or take they clay elsewhere. Something in the air today, usually they are all for pictures. The pictures are on flickr.

We found out most of the kids in this house were in NY for a hosting program last yr and are waiting for their parent to pick them up. We are glad; as we get to know most of the kids we want them all to be adopted

We also took some pictures of the beach today. The beach is very crowded and the water was very cold, reminds me of the NE beaches.

Also at the beach we tried the Ukraine version of a burrito, that’s what looks like to us . The bread was like a flat bread, the chicken was on a rotisserie they cut off, and added lettuce, tomato, mushroom, cheese and (French fries if you want, we skipped the FF) the sauce was mayo and ketchup and then rolled up on put on a Panini grill. The end result, it was $4 and pretty good.

Wow! I was unable to access the blog site while in Europe. Not sure what the problem was. So I’m just finding out about the girls. Congratulations! The girls look terrific. I am very happy that things are working out for all of you. I look forward to meeting them. Thanks for all the updates, keep them coming. Again, I’m thrilled for all of you. Take care. Love, Cheryl

Hello, Can you tell me what orphanage you are in in Odessa. Our son's (adopted from no.3 in 2005) brothers are in No. 4-we have contact with him and no.9-We haven't been able to have contact with him. We are hopefully coming to Ukraine in August or Sept to adopt them and the poor boy doesn't even know. Anyway, we spent 9.5 weeks in Ukraine in 05, we really enjoyed Odessa-even in Dec. Cara
