Ready for take off!

Hi All!
Yes, we finally got our travel dates!!!!! We are leaving the island on this friday 21 st of Aug. and take off on saturday night the 22nd Aug. @ Logan ( Boston ) for the 1st leg of our journey to Frankfurt, Germany. WE will be staying the night and relaxing and then off AGAIN on Monday the 24th the 2nd leg of journey to the captial of Kazakhstan...ASTANA... an over night and then 3rd leg of journey to the northern part of Kazakhstan to the city of Petropavlovsk. We will be staying in Petro for about 3 weeks! Dave and I will FINALLY get to meet our little one! VERY EXCITING time for us!
I am now 6 months pregnant and have gotten the clearance from my team of Drs. to travel...but, they would like me back home ASAP.
Dave has been busy with last minute work stuff and getting every thing in order for our trip.
Our 1st born will not be coming home with us on our return trip....we must wait for all the paper work to be finalized so......it will be a very HARD WAIT for us...within 5 week waiting time we think if not sooner.
We are planning on updating the blog as much as possible pending computer connections @ our Hotel Skiff in Petro. So, please stay posted. We will be also checking our e-mails too.
Will post again some time soon and sending love to all from HOT, STICKY Nantucket.
