Big news - we have received our official Letter of Invitation from the Ministry of Education in Kazakhstan. The LOI is required before visas can be issued for travel. The LOI has specified a visiting window for us of September 20 through December 20, 2008. What this means in practical terms is that we will not be traveling before September 20. Since it is customary to not receive official travel dates until about two weeks prior to departure, it likely will be September before we know anything more.
Slowly but surely, we're getting there!

Great news! If you leave shortly after September 20, you should be home before Thanksgiving. : )
Can't wait!
