At the airport, Alexei wanted to take a picture of both of us because he guessed we might never see each other again. I had said I probably wouldn’t come back to Ukraine next year or maybe for a few years. But I am determined to go back again sooner than that even if it is for a shorter time.

My Flight Itinerary

Kiev to JFK/NYC – Flight #89 – 11 am to 2:25 pm EST
JFK to Tampa – Flight #1277 – 4 pm to 7:05 pm

I got to Tampa on time even though the second flight was delayed. It was great to see my wife and be home again!
