![]() 29 April 2008: Tuesday in Moldova. This is my 2nd trip to this Eastern European country, the 1st being in January 2007 |
|
![]() My family is sponsoring Nelly and Gaby so that they can complete High School and move through a trade school. |
|
![]() I have come to Moldova to show our strong support for these 16 year old twins. We began the week with a walk through the park, followed by a visit to a museum. |
|
![]() A nice lunch at Andy's Pizza. Sergai is our driver and translator today. |
|
![]() This trip to Moldova is also undertaken to visit the two girls my mom is sponsoring. Here is Galina. |
|
![]() Galina's positive personality and gregarious nature are contagious. |
|
![]() Mamma and Papa. |
|
![]() Nieces, initially guarded in their view of this strange visitor. |
|
![]() Stella, my translator. |
|
![]() Svetlana, the case worker from CERI. She provides regular updates about our sponsored girls and facilitates communication (emails). |
|
![]() One member of the clan was quite reclusive. |
|
![]() We left Galina's home and went to Tatiana's home. |
|
![]() Mamma is so nice. A mom in Moldova is the same as a mom in the States or anywhere else in the world. |
|
![]() Tatiana, Nelly and Gaby and a tabby cat, facinated with the soft case for my camera. |
|
![]() We have two cats that look similar to this one. |
|
