Hello friends, we had a good nights sleep. We got up had coffee ate breakfast and then got ready to go see Alina. We went to the orphanage about 10am David stayed in the cab while I ran in to get her. Then hurried up and when we got to the guard shack he won't allow Alina to leave without a note. So Alina runs back up to the orphanage to get a note! She comes back and we're off! It is snowing here and has been since yesterday, everything is covered. The roads are slippery but our driver didn't mind, he still drove fast! Once back to the apartment we went inside for Alina to look around, then we bundled up and headed out to explore. Its very cold and white but we went out anyway. We found the fun center where I took Alina the very first time I was in Gorlovka. This time they had more arcade equipment, many are the same as JayDees. We spent some time there played and had lunch. Then headed back out into the blizzard. We stopped at a store that was like our dollar store, but much smaller. Then we stopped at the grocery stop for a couple of things. Here you go to the store just about everyday. You can only get what you can carry, its only a couple blocks walk, but when you are carrying big bottles of water it gets heavy. We had help today so the bags were light! We will take Alina back about 7:30 tonight. Hopefully the cabs can drive in the snow! Alina says Hi to everyone and wants to go home as quickly as possible! Me too. Have a great day. God Bless!

ReplyDeleteWalking to the market each day keeps the weight down, i bet! Are the people there pretty healthy?
What goodies did you get at the "dollar" store? -- sounds like you are doing a LOT of shopping! i don't like shopping- so, i would be frustrated with having to go EVERY day (although i could lose the pounds!)
Hi back to Alina ... love and hugs!! :)
XOXOXOXOXOXOOX love to all --tell those taxi drivers that they have precious cargo, drive safely!
