We've survived our first 24 hours - and equally important, so have the boys! They have already learned all of the important english words ... No, OK, Off (lights), Down (TV volume). We took a long walk yesterday before the rain hit. We were able to get their passports last night. And we enjoyed sharing in their bath time ... after all, when surfing in the tub, they felt it important to share their water with us!!! We also had a MUCH easier time getting to bed last night! Tonight we get picked up at 11 PM to catch the overnight train back to Moscow as we begin our journey home. Mama? Anything?
We all slept really well last night. We've back to TV and musical cars again. The restaurant is closed for three days, so we'll have to eat breakfast in the room. Don't know what we'll be doing for lunch yet. Bathtime was fun, but really wet!
We had to leave our room for a little while yesterday while they were cleaning our room. It was raining so we tried to find someplace in the hotel to play. We thought the bubbles might be fun. Forgot about the "mess" part. Anyway; as I was trying to wipe up the soap on the floor I noticed the boys were gone! I left my purse and went running. They were up the stairs and ready to go out the front door. When they saw me they turned and headed towards the lobby and up the stairs. Everyone in the hotel bar area was just watching this "mad woman" running after her crazy kids! The manager helped me get everything under control and said "guess what! the room is ready. You can go back" I never saw a hotel clean a room SO fast! It was in their best interest! We have SO many stories and can't wait to get home and tell everyone.
Oh well, another day. We'll see what kind of excitment is in store for us.
By the way we REALLY love reading all your comments. Keep them coming!

This all sounds so good! I'm so glad for the internet so we can keep in touch! I can imagine your time at the keyboard is short with 2 busy boys! Enjoy! Lola's fine. She'll have one more day of a run with Steve weather permitting. Wow she's FAST! There should be a doggy track team. She'd make the Olympics!
See you on Wednesday!
Love,
The Kopitzke's
Great to hear things are going well. Keep the sense of humer, you will need it !! The boys sound like boys (and Katherine, who acts more like a boy anyway) I know how much energy she had when we were in the hotel, can't imagine times 2 !! Try the balloons, I think they will like it.
Love your blog, it is so fun to read every mornting.
That is a good picture of Brian and the boys. They all look happy. Walks are good. I'm glad they like baths and that you are all sleeping well. You only have 6 or less hours until train time I think . Good luck with that. I Love You,Mom
I also like the pic of Brian and the boys! They look like they belong in your hands, and at your side. Cant wait to hear how the train ride goes!
