Farewell to Vladivostok…

Today, we leave Vlad. While we are truly ecstatic to be moving on and closer to home, this city will always hold a special place in our hearts. Vlad gave us our most wonderful blessing and one of its most prizes possessions...it's where we became a family. The folks here (CHI reps Irina and Lana…all of the staff at the Vlad Inn) have been awesome and we were very well looked after. The next step of our journey takes us to Moscow (an 8+ hour flight and a mere 7 time zones away from Vlad), where we will file our petition to the US Embassy requesting Victoria’s US citizenship. We are also hoping that the weather holds up, so that we can take in some of Moscow’s historic landmarks.

Once we have settled into our hotel (the Marriott Tverskaya) and set up our internet connection, we’ll reach out and let everyone know how Victoria handled her first flight.
