St Petersburg is a beautiful city. The downtown area that we are staying is pretty Americanized with coffee shops all over. The buildings are very old but beautiful. It is interesting that everywhere we go there is someone that speaks enough English to communicate with us. We went out on our own yesterday but will be going with our translator today and touring farther away from the downtown area. The hotel has some interesting things to get used to. There is a key reader in our room and our key has to be in it at all times in order to turn any lights on in our room. Also the elevator has a reader also which has to have the key in it and will then only take us to the floor that our room is on and back to the lobby. Today is a day to check out St Petersburg then tomorrow we get to meet our little girl!!
Someone asked which way we flew to get here. We flew east.
Dear Mom and Dad,
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a fun trip. How long is the day in Russia? We are having fun with Katie. We were playing chess but Wesley wrecked it. What is your room like? We went to the Zoo and the Hutchinson park. We liked to ride on the train at the zoo and see the animals at the zoo. I hope that Maria does not have to ride naked on the plane when you get her on the third trip. Bye Mom and Dad.
Love Tyler
How long is your trip? How fun is your trip? Is it like PE? Is it snowing there or was it when you were on the plane? It's your birthday! Did you get to watch tv on the plane? We went to the pond and there was a park there. We went to the Hutchinson park to.

We watched "Toy Story 3". I messed up the chess. We were playing at the park. I saw a duck that was sick. How is your room? Give a kiss to our sister. I am playing Curious George. We went to church and Katie went with us. Mom and Dad went to Russia. We miss them. We saw a swan at the park. And our sister a bed.

Boys, Thank you for your messages. Tyler the day time is from 9:30 in the morning until 6:30 in the evening. The day light is shorter than in Kansas. Our room is a lot like other motels that we have stayed at with a few differences. We have to have the key in a reader to turn on lights and use the elevator. We are glad you got to go to the zoo and park. That sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe you boys can help pick out some clothes for you sister to wear on the plane so she doesn't have to ride naked. No it is not snowing here and there is not much snow. It did sprinkle a few snow flakes a few times but there is not much snow on the ground. Eric, we did get to watch tv on the plane but is was a very long ride. Watching Toy Story and eating popcorn sounds like a lot of fun. Wesley, I hope that duck gets better soon. Was the swan nice? I bet you guys are having fun playing Curious George. Have a great day at school. It is just 2 days until you get to wrestle Uncle Rick down. We will give your sister kisses for you boys and we will show her the book we made her with your pictures. I better go get ready. We love you guys to the moon and back.
