Day 25 - Shopping at the Bazaar

Well today was another beautiful day in Svaliava. The sun is out, blue skies and light cool breeze. During our morning visit with Halina, one of the orphanage doctors asked us about the rash on Halina cheeks. She though were might be feeding her some juice, but when we told her we only feed her bananas, and yogurt and some other fruits, she said that she gets all those things already, and does not know what the rash is from. She asked us to only give her chai until the rash clears up (a day or two). Boy, Halina was cranky this afternoon.

We went shopping at the bazaar this afternoon and found Halina a new pair of shoes, as she has almost outgrown the ones we gave her were a couple of weeks ago. On our way to the hotel, we stopped in at a restaurant for lunch. The varenike (perogies) were delicious but still not like baba makes.

We are now waiting to hear when our court date is, and then wait for it to come. The next few days are going to be pretty boring (except for our visits with Halina).

Nothing like a new pair of shoes, that should cheer the little cranky pants up! I know a new pair of shoes always cheers my cranky ass up! I'm so excited for you guys, and can't wait to meet her. Love Jodie
