On the flight to Moscow I was surrounded by cute babies. I even got to play quite the rousing game of peek-a-boo! They played an old Russian movie with English subtitles - it was pretty hilarious! I don't know what it was called...I think the title had something about a voyage in it. It was about a crew sailing on a ship that was carrying cages of tigers and a lion. Things kept going wrong on board and they soon discovered they were carrying a mischievous monkey! If that wasn't enough, all of the animals ended up getting out of their cages and chased all of the crew everywhere. Luckily, the ship's waitress and only girl was able to tame them and they did whatever she wanted (the tigers & lion, that is...not the crew). In the end credits it showed her as being a tiger handler. Anyway, it was pretty good. Jeff, Lianne & Connie, I think you'd enjoy the editing in this one...pretty funny!
For dinner they gave a choice between chicken or fish. Since chicken is way less revolting than fish, I took that one and ate the rice around it & two pieces of broccoli. There was also a bun and this really good apple-tasting dessert. Oh, and tea of course.
Then I became Lord of Catan (yay me!...for those of you who dont know, that means i won Settlers of Catan on my ipad) and then they played the movie Jack and the Giant Slayer. It was alright...I kind of dozed on and off. After that they made it dark so that it was like night, but if I slept at all it was only for a few minutes. I can't sleep sitting up at all!! Plus I got kicked in the side every few seconds by the toddler sleeping beside me, head in her mom's lap. I'm not going to lie...watching all of these moms sitting around me with their little ones gave me a bit of a lump in my throat. But before I left my mom and dad specifically told me, "Don't come home with an orphan!" Haha
