Inspectors and tons of paperwork

We have been enjoying having Marina with us the past few days, and received
permission from the director to keep Marina with us when the Germans leave
to go back to Germany this Thursday. This weekend we spent visiting the aunt
and uncle, and Katya at her orphanage. Katya left for summer camp this
morning, but the camp is only 50 km away from the orphanage, so it will be
no problem for us to pick her up once the paperwork is filed. I will write
about the aunt and uncle later....

Sunday we took Marina to Center Park here in Kgrad - its kinda like a
permenant carnival with rides and little cafes - like a smaller version of
Hydropark in Kiev. Marina and Andrew had a great time going on all the
rides! In total it cost us under $10 USD for the day. Dad, I think we have a
roller coaster junky on our hands! Marina loves the "big and fast" rides :)

Today we spent going to see all the inspectors, lawyers and directors,
getting the needed papers to file for court. We should have all that
finished tomorrow, and have the papers for the SDA. The SDA then has up to 5
days to process those before we can have court, but Nena thinks we can get
it in a day or so. Then court, then maybe 10 day wait, then
home.....meanwhile, we continue to wake up to Marina covering our faces in
kisses!
