Even though we missed our annual summer vacation trips, we made up for it by taking a side trip to a little resort village about 20 kilometers west of Mariupol, on the Azov Sea. We joined Kostya, and his wife and son in a great little beach house that you can see in the picture. The girls had a lot of fun playing with Kostya’s son. On the last couple of days, we had strong winds which created some big waves, and we all had a great time swimming in the sea. It’s amazing how much fun the kids had together even though they don’t speak the same language. Kostya’s wife, Olga, spoiled us with her wonderful cooking, and we enjoyed great conversation with good friends. It was particularly special because K celebrated her 7th birthday while we were there.
We are having difficulty rescheduling our flights home. Our original return plane tickets were for Wednesday, August 15th, but we need to reschedule them for Wednesday, August 22nd. We contacted our travel agent, and Delta has no flight available with 5 tickets anytime near the 22nd. It looks likeI am going to have to come home with the girls on the 15th, and then Matt will come home with D the following week. We really want to fly home together as a family, but it looks like this is our only option. The girls cried when they found out they may be going home early, and Matt and I had a hard time deciding who would go and who would stay. We finally decided that I will come home with the girls early, unless the travel agent is able to come up with a better option. We’ll keep you posted.
