Kazakstan Adventure
We made it! The first of two trips, that lasted nearly three weeks, went very well. We traveled to Kazakstan and stayed in the city of Kostanay. From there we traveled to nearby Rudny where the orphanage was located. We saw Aleksander for the two-week bonding period, and it worked its magic. Then on December 1st we went to court and won custody of Aleksander. The trip exceeded our expectations because of the fine accommodations we had, but most of all because of the quality of people that we meet there who helped us. Then on the second trip Aleks came home with us.
