Back in Russia

Posted Wed, 02/25/2009 - 14:49 by rdawn

I am here; back in Rostov on Don.

Friday Feb 20th, I arrived. It really was a crazy trip because I did not know I was leaving until the day came. I only got my passport and Russian visa back on the same day I left.

Being back is incredible. Things are so familiar and yet so different. I have moved into an apartment and once the fridge is working all will be great.
I am getting involved in ministry again and loving every moment!!

Musings from the Airport

I am writing this as I am sitting in the London Heathrow airport. I can't sleep anymore and this is on the list of things to do...
Travel on an emergency passport is not something I would wish on anyone. Please make sure that you have your passport… right now… go and look!
Every airport when I handed them my passport, looked at it briefly and then asked, "where is your passport?" I explained that this is my emergency passport...

"Where did you lose it?"

The Unthinkable happened!!
I was at the translator's office Monday afternoon. She asked to see my passport and as I dug through my purse I was very surprised not to find it. Only after I emptied my purse three times onto her desk was I satisfied that it was not there...
The next few days were a blur of activity, looking in every nook and cranny, retracing my steps, searching garbage cans to phoning the Canadian embassy. Never before had I been asked "where did you lose it?" so many times!!

Thursday was the day that was most difficult!
