VICTORY DAY!

[St&Sv 33]

As I look at the page in my passport it says, Стивн. Ahh cool so that's my Russian equivalent. Yea don't let the max confuse you it's a name i use when I used to pen a few stories anonymously. So I've got this visa in hand, and booked the flights yesterday, and loving how everything is fitting into place. Though an Idea struck me, "I wonder if any other VJers will be going over during Victor Day?". Well how about it anyone else? If you happen to be flying out of Detroit on may 2 through Air France at 3:25pm to Paris...we will be on the same flight.

Congrats Steven.

Be aware that Paris has the worst airport in the world and a 100% success rate in losing our luggage, ALL of it, EVERY time. Keep a change of clothes in your carry on and any important papers. Your bags will eventually catch up to you in a day or two.

We plan to go to Ukraine this year (Ukraine has some awesome May Day and Victory Day celebrations also) but we are holding off until we get the visa appointment for Alla's mom. I have a feeling this is going to rival a mission to the moon. I doubt that will be in May.

Have fun, it is a great time to visit!

I went with this way to skip Moscow, but I'm thinking I should have went there instead. Thanks for the heads up Gary!
