Got up early and went to the US Embassy at 8:30 AM. It was nice because only a few people have been given appointments over the holidays. We were expected and all went well until our interview. I was told that since Elliott was 16, a check with the Department of Homeland Security was needed. the Embassy had initiated the check last week and they still have not received the results. This is not the Ukraine Police Check that they require - Yuri had gotten that completed last week. The embassy official said that they had put an urgent trace on it yesterday and told me to call back at 4 PM. If it isn't there then we can check at 8 AM. Please pray that this is received as our flight is at noon tomorrow.
Elliott has been practicing his English using the Rosetta Stone software that his sister Tobi and brother-in-law Tommy bought for him. His pronunciation of all words except those with a 'th' in them is great!
Had lunch at McDonalds for a second day in a row!! Had supper at Da Mario's last night - I really love that restaurant!! The grilled salmon is to die for.
