Aside from the whole kids thing, which is itself really cool, I gotta say, I am very jealous of the being in Moscow.

Its 5:00am here and I can't sleep. So I am in the empty community area of the hotel where there is one free internet connected computer.
I only have a few hours in Moscow before we fly off to the region we are adopting from, not enough time to visit Red Square or the Kremlin or anything.
I did pass their new Ikea store, two Mc Donalds and a large amusement center with an Imax theater and an advertisement for a Simpson 3-D movie.
Flying into Moscow airport I also noticed one pecuiliarity of Russia. They have the brightest, most colorful roofs I've ever seen from the air. And bright fences. Greens, REds, and bright vivrant Blues dot the surface of the country along with other mellower tones. But the dull bussiness like grey and silver seen elsewhere is rare.
Everywhere we drove around Moscow, from the Airport to the Hotel, and everywhere we saw from the air, we saw construction.
They are building, sprawling, growing.
