We have a winner!

Tim has Evan's passport, and the guys are on their way to Kyiv!!! Hooray! I had a message at 5:30 AM on my work voice mail saying that the passport finally came, (from Kyiv, mind you. . . where they are NOW heading! How's that for gov't efficiency?!?!?) and that Viktor's cousin, Sergei, had helped Tim buy train tickets for the overnight trip to Kyiv. They boarded the "scary train" at 6:30 PM, and should arrive in the capitol city by dawn. Next up is the medical exam which has been taking anywhere from one day to two days. Tim and Evan will either be heading home Friday night, Saturday night, or Tuesday night. Who's praying for Friday night with me?????
