First of all, thanks to everyone for their well wishes. It was very nice to read. I know you were all waiting for an update but we were seriously going from sun up to sun down and just didn't have time to update while in Orenburg. Here are some pictures of our hotel room. It was a pleasant surprise. The one bad thing about being here is that every room, building, hotel has the heat cranked up to like 85 degrees. When we were visiting Brooke, I kept looking out at the snow thinking if I could just jump in there and roll around. Mind you I only had the 1 pair of clothes I had on so that was'nt going to be an option. I wore a pair of jeans and a short sleeve shirt and was HOT. It's been a good trip for learning so now we'll know more for later.
Here are the pictures of the hotel room.
The way that we regulated the heat was to open the window at night. The only bad thing was in the morning, the hot water didn't really work that well so it was only luke warm. it made getting out of the shower pretty cold. There were 2 restauraunts in the hotel. we ate breakfast in the one donwstairs. We woould have dinner on the 8th floor. This is Europe so people smoke inside. EWWW! We ate upstairs one morning and they actually made Steve and I a latte. i was in HEAVEN. They are big tea drinkers here and not so much on the coffee.
So, stay tuned for the update on the Orsk baby home and meeting our baby boy Kyle...

I know how you feel with the climate control in your room. We had the same room on trip #2.
