Hi Helen, we made the silly assumption that our visas were valid for 30 days from the date of entry. A few lessons learnt – don’t assume, double check everything and (possibly) don’t go to Russia!

David, I just have to share the comment you made to me last night on Facebook with our faithful blog readers:
” But can’t you see Sarah Palin’s place from your hotel room?”
Thanks for making us laugh. It definitely brightened a very dark day for us.
Korean BBQ for dinner tonight!

Hi Judy and Greg This is one story I will remember of your trip to think you have both been nearly all round the world and you did not check the date on your visas,what a bummer,never mind lets hope it will soon work its self out and you will be on your way.

Ohmygod! You two! Indeed you WILL laugh about this—often and for many many years to come. (I have to admit when I read that the only way you could leave the country was to be deported I let out a large morning guffaw!) I met you the morning after your first night in New York after your (spits loudly now) “hotel” dissed you, and you came up shining–as you will after this! And lord knows–blinis and borscht! There are a helluva lot worse last meals!

Dear Judy and Greg .What a nightmare !, but I am sure you will get it all sorted and eventually move on. I really wanted to ask more about Caviar and how much you had and did you like it? also the price . I can see you have more to cope with at this time .Good luck and keep smiling xx
