Happy Monday!

Happy Monday to all of you!

Today was our last day in Vlad. We all got up late again (Loving it!) - around 9am! Slow morning we stayed in our pj's and ate lunch. Nick took a 2 hour nap and Jon watched a movie while I read a great magazine -(thanks krissy!!)

We had to go pick up Nick's Russian Passport to bust him out of here, then off to the doctor for a quick medical visit for - you guessed it , more paperwork for the US Embassy when we hit Moscow. It was in a little tenement building and her office was so small that we had to turn sideways to pass each other. All in all it was very easy and she was kind.

Our flight leaves for Moscow tomorrow around 1pm. We will post more in a few days and I am sure have many photos for everyone!

Thanks for following us on our journey!

Jon, Becky and Nick

Hope you guys had a good flight, hopefully Nick handled it better than his dad does : ) I just checked the Aeroflot website and it looks like you guys are running on time. Pretty crazy that you're landing 2 hrs after take-off, I'm sure it didn't feel like that. Hopefully there's more to do in Moscow too, can't wait to see more pictures of you guys. Thank Nick for mine : ) Can't wait for you guys to get back. Wanna give a quick shout out to Nat, can't wait to see you too! ~Jason
