Travel plans all in place

Heard today from TOL that our in country airfare is taken care of, all though we do have 6 hours of waiting in Sophia to take the plan to Varna. Our agency there said they would meet us at the airport, take our luggage that we didn't need, and give us a phone. We will fly out that evening to Varna and a taxi driver will meet us in the airport with a sign with our name on it. He is the same taxi driver we had the last time we visited Varna to see our son. We will be staying at a nice hotel downtown close to the seagarden and beach. Our translator will be flying in the following evening (Sunday) and staying at the same hotel and then we will leave the following morning to pick up our son.
We were also told he has been taken off his heart medication, the doctors in Sophia said he doesn't need them anymore. Praising God for that. Can't wait to get him home to see the cardiologist over here. I tried making an appointment for him but they told me at the hospital he had to be referred by our family doctor. Wish we were leaving sooner of course, but 3 weeks isn't too long. Until then I am trying to get some fun things in for the girls to do. We have gone to the beach a few times, have planned some play dates, gone to the children's museum (it rained all day yesterday) and next weekend we are going to go canoeing. The loved it last summer and asked to do it again. Next week we will try and get the zoo in to. Once Calvin comes home we will be hibernating in our back yard with a kiddy pool and going to the park. We won't venture out for at least a month so he gets used to us as a family and our home.

Count down is on Celeste!!! He will be home before you know it. So glad to hear he got off his heat meds, I hate to see anyone on medication especially the little kiddos! Sounds like you will get to enjoy the area for a few days prior. The weather was very warm over there! Say hi to Rosi for us!
