Kostanai

This morning I received a phone call from Libby, our MAPS coordinator. She was happy to report that our dossier had been approved "through all channels", including both the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Education, and been assigned a region-- Kostanay. This was wonderful news, and a bit of a surprise. We had been hoping to hear that we had cleared MFA.

So,we'll be busy planning for our trip, which we were told would be "sometime in the next two months". Of course, that is a little too vague to help our employers, but we'll work with it.

Meanwhile, we're going to spend more time with our Russian language tapes, working on a picture book for Morgan, and finalizing the house plans while researching Kostanai.

More later . . .
