My new travel date is Friday, May 27th. Hopefully, no further delays. Unfortunately, the delay made it such that my cousin, Debbie, won't be able to travel with me. We are both very disappointed, but such is life. It isn't looking good for Samuel and me to make it to Italy for my parents 50th anniversary trip with the whole family. It is a slim possibility that I will be able to get the baby a visa to travel to Italy while I'm in Kazakhstan, but I'm sure that I won't know until the last minute.
My parents will be able to join me for the first week of the trip. We will meet up at the Frankfurt airport on Saturday, May 28th, and fly to Kazakhstan together. We'll have two night in Almaty, the main city, before heading off to Ust-Kamenogorsk to meet Samuel and start the visitations. They will head back to Europe a few days later and I will be solo for the remainder of the trip. Luckliy, I am part of a group that is adopting at the same time from the same oprhanage: a single woman from LA adopting a little girl, a Chicago couple with their 2 yr old son (adopted last year from the same orphanage) going to adopt his baby half sister, and one other family (don't know anything about them).
I'm sure keeping my fingers crossed for NO MORE DELAYS!
