On our way...


The last few days have been crazy! The papers that we needed for our visa were sent to Winnipeg and arrived late - after we'd already flown to Toronto. SO after some issues and stress, we got the papers, got the visa (in 3 hours) and are now waiting at the airport for our flight that leaves bientot. Here's a map that I found of European Russia - we are heading to Yaroslavl, a city of about 600,000 located about 250 kms northeast of Moscow. It's not going to be as cold as Winnipeg, but nowhere near as warm as any of the places we have lived so far. Here's the Wikipedia site - I'll be hijacking information and learning about the surrounding area from there for sure: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaroslavl ... will post some pics from Puerto Rico when we get there... and give an update on my first impressions.
