Passport

Yesterday we, along with Vika, drove two + hours, one way, to another city/town to apply for Vika's international passport. Everyone in Ukraine has an in country passport, it is their form of ID. But you have to apply for a passport for travel outside Ukraine. I know that we complain about potholes back home, but you should experience the roads here! There are potholes that would wreck your car, you have to swerve one way and then back the other, half of the time we were driving in the middle of the road. The ladies at the passport office had me print out Vika's full name for her passport, they could not understand the McC in McCracken, Sveta told me to get out my passport and show them. It was done correctly, but I don't think they understood why anyone would spell their name that way.
It is quite here today, we are going to start to get things repacked for friday. Other than going to the market and maybe for a walk we will wait until we can go the childrens home to visit. One full week left, please pray that there is NO snow or bad weather next thursday for our return trip.  We have not had good luck with our flights and would like to have an uneventful trip back.
I do not have any photos from yesterday so I will post a few from past days.
