Posted by Dani in Sunday, February 21, 2010 In the middle of the night- Moscow time
I can’t sleep again. Of course, back home it is early evening. Folks are on their way home or getting ready for supper. I wonder what my kids are doing right now. If it wasn’t so expensive to call them, I would probably see what they are up to.
Mike is sound asleep. Snoring rather loudly. I an envious of him. Not that he’s snoring, but that he’s deep in dreamland. He’ll be awake soon though, I am sure, as we’ve both been waking up around 3:00 AM Moscow time and remain wide awake for hours. We usually drift back off to sleep just around the time we get a wake up call. I am too old for this.
As we were saying our “goodbye’s” yesterday to all the folks at Zoo Russia, Nadejda and Natalia presented us with a gift of Russian cognac. I am looking at the bottle on the table beside the bed. Mike tried some earlier and was out cold within minutes. Maybe the cognac had something to do with this. It’s worth a try……..
Tomorrow we travel home. A very long trip and I am not feeling well. I wonder how much I should drink?
ummmm……not too bad. Warm and tingly going down. Earlier Mike had said something about it being a very smooth cognac. But then I asked him how he knew this since he’d never actually had cognac before. What was he comparing it to? The other not-so-smooth cognacs he has never indulged in before?
Now that I’ve had some I might call it smooth, too. I am sleepy. My eyes are heavy…………my………..
