The Thorntons Have Arrived!

The following email just arrived in my inbox:

We safely landed in Odessa yesterday. The trip was very good and uneventful. All our bags made it, and though 3 or 4 were over the weight limit, we did not have to pay anything extra. We are still tired and sleepy but it's getting better.

Tomorrow we will leave for Kherson. It's a 4-hour trip, probably close to 5 hours with stops.

We have started a blog to chronicle our life here.

Thank you for all your prayers and support.
