Friday update











Hi everyone, not much happening today. All we did was go to the square to grab breakfast and are now packing for our train ride. Just wanted to see if we remembered how to post pics so we put a couple of the apt. and a couple of the view at night in the square. As we get some better pictures, we will be sure to put them on here. The buildings and architecture here are pretty neat. The way it sounds and we may be wrong but we will know shortly, the bathrooms on the train consist of a hole in the floor that opens unto the tracks. I think we will try our best to use our facilities at our apartment before we leave. Thanks for checking in, Gail and Craig

congratulations on your SDA appointment. Dont worry the file pictures never do the children any sort of justice!

Mariopul is a very nice orphanage!

Best of luck on your trip and finding your child. Tell Dr. Yuri and Luba the Gregory family says hello.

I know the anxiety you are feeling right now. Hang in there. I was in Colombia to adopt my beautiful children and it is an experience you will never forget. Good luck. Craig & Lorita Kilian

Your apartment looks very nice. We can't wait to hear about the little girl. When I told Vanya you might be going to his orphanage to meet a little girl, he was very excited and happy.
Prayers coming your way,
Cath

Hi Craig and Gail. This is cousin, LuRaye. I had no idea you were adopting until I got your Christmas card. That is so awesome. Congratulations!!!! It all sounds so exciting and I'm so happy for you. Good luck with everything over there and I cannot wait to meet her when you get back home. Love, LuRaye

Hi Craig and Gail-
We've been checking your blog frequently. It's exciting to follow this adventure with you.

Craig-
Greg, Scott and I have been stopping in each day at noon to play, feed and water the dogs on our way down to lay tile at WFS. It might get above zero tomorrow.

Talk to you soon!

Nice apartment. It looks so beautiful in the square. Can't wait to see more pics. How long is that train ride again? Hope you don't need to use the bathroom facilities on the train. How funny!!! Keeping you in our thoughts.

Craig,
This is from Brent....was I right or was I right? (regarding the women) Don't forget to look for the Neimeroff Pepper Vodka. It's to die for!
