St. Pete Day 1

The morning was tied up with adoption work today, we met O at 10 and then N joined us around 11:30. We were left off at the hotel about 12 and had the rest of the day to ourselves. We walked almost the entire length of Nevsky Prospekt. We visited the Church of the Spilled Blood, which is beautiful and done in the old style with the onion domes, etc. There was an open air market so we purchased some souvenirs.

I know this is not the news that any of you are looking for, but we will visit the Committee tomorrow and receive our referral, so I won't really have much information until that time. We are meeting the driver and translator in the morning at 9:30 to head to the Comm. at 10. We will then arrive at the Baby Home and meet our referral, have time with the doctor for the medical history, etc. Tomorrow is the post you will all be waiting for! :)

Paka!
