I am sick

It is Wednesday, February 17, 2010 and we are at the Internet Cafe after spending the morning at the flea market and eating lunch at McDonalds. We purchased a hand painted picture from some lady off the street and another pair of gloves for Alison because I gave the other pair to a little girl at the orphanage. I woke up in the middle of the night last night feeling miserable. I have a head cold and feel very tired and worn out. Yesterday Todd and I along with the Helton's went to a museum here in Cherkassy. It was a nice museum with alot of history but of course we could not read anything so it made it a little hard to understand. We also climbed a very big hill to a statue that overlooked the river here in Cherkassy. The climb up was not so bad but we really didn't think about how we were going to get down once we got up there. It was solid ice and quite steep so I just set on my big butt and slid down. A little cold, but it worked! There were tons of people on the river ice fishing. The plan is still to get the kids this Saturday. We made arrangements for our flight to be on Friday, February 26th so that we would have enough time to get the kids passports, medical clearances and whatever else we will need. If all goes well we should be at the Indianapolis Airport on Friday the 26th at 6:30 p.m. If this changes we will let you know. We should be flying with all the families that are still here. The Heltons, Doris Alderink and Tammy Peters along with eight little monsters!! Hope to see you very, very soon!!
