Where are you from?

I guess us girls from NJ are just a little bold. Who knew! Although the hotel was very nice and safe I have requested to be put into an apartment when I return one with internet and telephone if possible. I know that there are many apartments close to where I was staying just because that is what I have read from others who have been here before. The price is the same or cheaper then the hotel. I will not know if I am going to be in an apartment until I return.

This request prompted the question of where are you from? His first guess was New York and that made me laugh because I think of myself as not even remotely being from there and I could NEVER fool anyone from the US that I was from New York. His next guess was New Jersey. We must be a pushy bunch of people from NJ because there are 49 other states to guess from. That made me laugh.

So I will be checking in at the airport in a couple of minutes. I have heard that the airplane will be a small one not a jet! I wonder how small? Alexander the Russian coordinator told me that I was booked on a flight instead of a train because the sleeping car is for 2 people. I would either have to pay for both fares or have a sleep over with a stranger!

I am not really all that big about sleep over parties so I am glad that I will be flying. He was able to answer a couple of my burning questions. I will need to make a list of more so that I am more organized.

I did ask him if there was much to do in Cheboksary and he laughed. I take that as a NET!

PS Geralyn you've got mail. I am not sure how frequently you check it so please take a look when you get a chance.
