Now Playing: Wednesday February 2nd
Wellllll-didn't get to take Eli from the baby house today. The director of the baby house has to be there to approve it and she wasn't in. Don't ask me why they didn't set up a meeting with her for this morning instead of waiting until the day of and finding out she isn't in. I don't think they believe in setting up meetings around here nor do they think ahead and plan things out. My coordinator is suppose to see if she can locate the director and we could possibly get Eli yet today, but it is 3 p.m. here and I don't think it is going to happen. I am told my passport will be ready Friday (I'm not content with that until I know my coordinator has it in her hands on friday)but they have to call the Consulate in Astana to confirm if they are open Saturday. If so, my coordinator will fly the passport to Astana (the capital of Kazakhstan) to have it stamped with approval and we will be able to fly out Sunday. I would think all that would take is a phone call but I haven't heard anything yet. It will probably be open but KLM probably won't have any more seats available(as of today, there are still seats) but at least we do have seats to fly out the 9th.(again-as long as the passport is done on Friday and it is flown to Astana to be stamped before the 9th)
I believe my coordinator and translator are doing everything they can to get us out of here on Sunday. I just don't think anyone moves quickly around here.
I'll post once I know my passport is complete on friday.
