A little cautious about flying on 911 but coming out of Roanoke, it was fairly easy. Left the house at 4:00 am Sunday morning I was randomly selected in Roanoke for the full body pat down. Looking back, I may have been profiled. I later found out that wearing a T-shirt that says "Running Sucks" or any shirt that has a derogatory comment is a target for the TSA... lesson learned.
We had a 10 hour layover in Chicago that we were dreading but it turned out to be the best part of the trip. Kerry picked us up and took us back to Lake Forrest to hang out for the afternoon... thank you thank you Kennings.
Arrived in Kiev finally Monday around 4:00pm made it thru customs without incident. It certainly is a little easier and less threatening after being here once before. We then got dropped of with another couple that is on their second adoption and got to hear all their stories. It seems our timing was a bit off on our last trip as we were the only ones here. Tonight, we had dinner with 2 American families and we were able to meet the group that is here to interview for the hosting programs this winter.

On the first Class train now waiting to get rolling... it's almost 10:00 pm Monday night and have been traveling for the last 35 hours and we are a little worn out... We will find out tomorrow how long we stay here so we are hoping and praying for a smooth, quick expedited turn around... Love
