Today we went to the US Embassy to completed some paperwork , so that Ben will be able to come home . He estimated arrival date into the US is either the end of Feb. or the first week of March. Security at the Embassy was very tight and we were escorted everywhere, never left alone. It was wonderful to be able to speak to an American.
To celebrate having completed all of our paperwork we went to the biggest mall here in Almaty called the MEGA, were we found real American food. There was a sabaro pizza and a KFC. We ate pizza and KFC (chicken only). KFC of course did not have the great biscuts, or any of the wonderful sides, but it was a taste of home.
We are currently in the Almaty Kazakhstan airport waiting for our flight. We should be home Tuesday at 6pm. Mike and I are discussing who gets to hug Nolan first! I have told Mike I will push him down to get to Nolan first.
In talking with our translator today that people usually only go out to eat a couple of times a year. Which explains why the resturants are never busy, she said they are just to expensive for people.
Okay this really is my last post from Kazakhstan, see you all back in the states!
