new log entry from Tim 10/28

Right now we are trying to schedule 2 big activities in the morning. It has been wet and cold the last few days, so walks in the morning have been minimal. We have a pool at the hotel, so we have been hitting this for a couple hours in the late morning. Then sit for lunch and another large activity involving walking. Crafts and videos fill the time. I like to try to plan the day, but my wife is more of one to shoot from the hip. This is a crazy marathon for the parents.

Well it is Sunday of the second week. We head back to Bailystok tomorrow and we are looking forward to another change of scenery. We stay in the Orphanage apartment for Mon & tues and then in a hotel for the rest of the week. Next week we get to drop the kids off.

The kids are being much better. They are playing well together and listening much better. Yesterday was the first day that was almost completely enjoyable. We went to the zoo and this was a good activity for about four hours. The zoo is nice and requires lots of walking. The kids found the animals to be very interesting were generally well behaved with minimal fighting. We could tell they were tired because they didn’t want to play on the park equipment, so we had a movie night. It worked out well. We had the kids in bed and lights out by 9:00 but then we played so more video, I think that was bad. We should have left them to drift off.

Hind sight is 20:20 and now it is time for breakfast!! Got to go….
