Day 35 - May 19th, 2007 - We begin our long trip home

As usual Natasha and I are all packed and waiting for our driver to pick us up at 10:00 am to take us to the airport. Gail, on the other hand, is still packing. She is doing good this time and should finish soon - I think that is because she is so anxious to finally be going home. This will be a long day, our driver will pick us up at 10:00 am, we should be at the airport by 11:00 am. Our flight will leave Kiev at 1:00 pm, and is scheduled to arrive in New York at 4:20 pm. We are arriving at JFK and will go through customs and immigration there. We then have to take a short taxi ride to La Guardia airport for our flight to Akron/Canton. Our flight to Akron/Canton is scheduled to leave New York at 8:52 pm and arrive at 10:12 pm. We will be arriving in Akron/Canton on Airtran airways flight 212. Anybody interested can check our flight status at http://flightaware.com/live/flight/TRS212. If everything goes on schedule, we should arrive in Akron/Canton a little longer than 19 hours after our driver picks us up to take us to the airport.

We are anxious and excited to get home. We have missed all of our girls very much and look forward to seeing them at the airport tonight. We are looking forward to attending our church(Rivertree Christian) tomorrow together as one big family (although with the long travel day, we are expecting to make the 11:00 service). Please pray that our travels will go safely and smoothly.
God Bless,
Bob

We live in Green and just discovered your blog. Thanks for the details. Our dossier is in the process of being translated. Hopefully, we will be adopting an "older" girl - 10 to 12. Welcome home!

Hey Dad and Gail,
I am glad you will be home soon with Natasha. Mom told us Shauna was picking us up at eight and take us to the airport to wait for you. I miss you soooooooooooooo much and can't wait till you all get home. Kelly and Cailin say the same thing. They both miss you very much. Kell says HI and that she can't wait till you get home. Cailin is still sleeping. Tell Natasha I miss her and tell her I said Hi. Love you soooo much and see you tonight.

Love Kim,
