We felt like we were in a holding pattern today and the kids were not happy to be indoors. After our morning walk, lunch and naps, we headed to Victory Park and spent a few hours with two other adoptive families. The kids enjoyed running around and doing a few rides. Rides in Armenia cost anywhere from 50 cents to a dollar per child and they go for a long time, so we always felt like it was money well spent for our bunch.

Shortly after breakfast, we finally got the call that Ella's visa would be ready by late afternoon, so we knew our time in Armenia was coming to a close. We spent the morning as always, walking the city and purchasing fresh food for lunch at our favorite places. In the afternoon, Craig and Rex headed to the US embassy to pick up the passport with visa and I had the wonderful opportunity of visiting one of Armenia's small, private Catholic orphanages and spending a few hours with the special kids there. For dinner, we went to an indoor amusement park of sorts where the kids enjoyed rides and games once again.
