Well Hi everyone! Our first week is coming to a close we have had an adventure. We walked out of the airport in Moscow not picking up our luggage because we thought it was Checked all the way through to Yekaterinburg. WRONG!!!!! When ever you go into a new country it is only checked to the first place in which you land in that country. So when we went to get our tickets for the flight to Yekat. they asked to see our luggage, we didn't know where is was. Our translator was also clue less and we panicked for a minute or two but found it at the lost and found and unclaimed part of the airport. It was a shorter flight than we thought to Yekaterinburg which was nice and when we arrive the mission President and his wife and the assistances were waiting for us they were a great sight to see. We had a wonderful Senior couple conference at the mission home then Thursday and Friday and we left for Chelyabinsk on Saturday arriving around noon. The missionaries found us a great apt. and took us shopping. I can't believe how much stuff you need to get to set up a kitchen. Well we have to go Monday and get the rest of the food. We had a great Sunday meeting with the Branch here in Chely. They were super nice on sister came and said she really liked my nails and knows where I can get them done!!!! See there are fashion conscious women around the world!! I found their concerns for their children and families are just the same. We are united as mothers and wives. Sisters are Sisters!! We will soon add pictures to the blog. Love ya all
Hi this is a test. This is Lynn and Judy Greene.
ReplyDeleteWe are having trouble posting.
I am helping Judy here so this will be brief. I am so pleased you found a place to get your nails done. I was so worried.
ReplyDeleteLove, Janet
This is Judy. Janet is still trying to help. Bless her heart.
ReplyDeleteThis is very strange. The Greenes have a gmail account, and Lynn has joined and is a friend, but it still thinks they're "unknown." So until we figure that out, Judy's always going to tell you she's the one writing the post. Bari is having the same problem. We'll get it straightened out.
ReplyDeleteYes, I found the same to be true when I traveled to Finland. I had to pick up my bags and go through customs and re-check them. A pain. And I don't believe anyone ever TOLD me to expect that. My ankle hasn't healed so I have to use wheelchairs, and my wheelchair escort knew exactly what I had to do, or I would have had missing luggage, too. So I'm glad you finally found it. I'm sure they think we Americans are just dumb.
anyway, conference was great. You'll enjoy the addresses.
Miles wants to read your blog but he doesn't want to write anything that will be viewed by the public. So he'll be emailing.
Love, Janet
This is Lynn and Judy. We hope each week is as exciting as the first. It is a good thing to know that the gospel and the Church are a security for any of us no matter where we go in the world. It gives us instant friends and people who think like you think, and feel like you feel. We send you our love.

ReplyDeleteHey I hope this works. I cant believe I spelled my name wrong and can't figure out how to change it. Oh well, you know who I am. Have a great day. I have replied to your email.
DeleteWell, I couldn't help Bari either. But I think she can email you. We'll get this straightened out.
