Russia Update.

So after weeks of my nerves being wracked; I booked a flight home from Guangzhou to Kunming on the 29th of December and will take a 26 hour train ride from Kunming to Guangzhou on the morning of Boxing day.

After being reassured that there should be no problems with getting my visa; I finalized my flight tickets to Helsinki, bought my train ticket to Guangzhou, booked a flight home from Guangzhou on the 29th, am currently looking for flights to Nanjing from Kunming as I fly out of Nanjing on the 6th of January at noon, as well as tickets from Beijing to Kunming on February 26th; after our last day together in Beijing. 

Things are coming together.  I asked Michael from Saskatchewan to bring me a pair of winter boots from Canada and he graciously agreed; I found a winter jacket, long underwear that was surprisingly not Chinese-sized, and even bought a backpacking backpack today.  My ‘to do’ list is shrinking day by day and I feel hopeful that things will fall exactly into place.  :)

Keep praying for me.

 

By Tuesday I’ll tell you that there is a Russian visa in my possession.. :)
