Busy Days

Hi Everyone! We got off the train early this morning at 6:30 am. We didn't get as much sleep on the train as we had hoped but it was an experience! We had 2 cars for the seven of us and the most sleep any of us got was 4 hours! It was so good to finally get to Lutsk. The Weight's house seems like a palace compared to the last 2 or 3 days! I was SO good to get our suitcases here! Everything arrived without a problem and no broken Oreos or candy canes at all!

We had breakfast next door with Pastor Victor, Luda and their two girls and now are planning out the rest of our day. Rich and I plan to go to Brenna's home with Briana to do interpreting. I am very anxious to meet Yulia as Luda and Victor both said over breakfast she reminds them of me because of her looks and personality. Apparently, she was the last of about 10 children her mother had and she was the last one left they took out of the home( they do not know where the other 9 are) I am sure I will get the full story soon.

We are planning a small birthday dinner tonight for Oxsana. I baked my first cake here in Ukraine and unfortunately, I do not think it will taste like back home. ( I had to guess at the oven temperature and I have to use canned icing!)

Love to all, Donna
