Russia Trip 1 Begins
We’re now officially traveling for trip 1 of our Russia adoption. We left Lisa’s parents in Alabama at 9:30am Central time to drive to Atlanta for our flight. It’s going to be a very long day. Our flight to Moscow was 11 hours and took us north over Tennessee, West Virginia, up across Maine, Newfoundland, and out over the North Atlantic. We stayed just south of Greenland and Iceland and the first land we saw was Norway. I never realized how beautiful the mountains in Norway are. We landed in light rain in Moscow’s Sheremetevo 2 airport at a little after 10:00 am local time. The problem is that it was 2:00am to us (Moscow is 8 hours ahead of Ohio). We tried, but were unable to sleep on the flight, so we’re going to be exhausted by the end of this day.
