We're very international here!

So I think I have said before that we have 4 other families who are adopting staying here at the hotel. One is Italian, one French, one Spanish, and us. Last night the Italian family, the French family, the Ukrainian housekeeper, our Ukrainian translator, and Dave and I were standing in the hallway having a conversation in no less than 4 languages. It was kind of funny! Vincenzo speaking a combo of Italian, Spanish, and English; the French speaking French and English; our translator speaking Russian, Spanish, and English, and the housekeeper speaking only Russian. Somehow we understand most of what Vincenzo says despite the fact that he speaks mostly in Italian. He had court yesterday, so he's in the 10 day waiting period before he gets to bring his son with him forever! He's very excited... well both of them are. We've been invited to a party for him at the orphanage next Wednesday night!
