In the spring of 2009 we flew half way around the world to adopt a little girl in the city of Petropavlovsk in northern Kazakhstan. This blog chronicles our experiences in bringing her home. We wrote it both to keep those at home up to date on our progress and also to provide help and perspective to those who might follow behind us on the same adventure. Hopefully it accomplishes both goals.

Apparently Air Astana flies jets from here to Astana but if you are coming from Almaty you are stuck with an aging turbo-prop courtesty of SCAT Airlines. Of course if you were Madonna I’m sure you’d just come in on your private jet…oh to be so lucky.
Here it is on Google maps:
