Istanbul Transit Visa

The story of a unique adventure: The BAFA

"Animate is to love without N and without hatred. .
That Lawrence, a trainer of my internship general, said when I started training BAFA in late June. I was not sure what I was getting, I thought that during the internship, we sat for a week, and that trainers spouting rules, laws, techniques ... NADA!

During my stage 1, I learned many things, including how to make a castle with a cardboard box for manual activities, I also learned to lead a vigil at the building, feed it. If I were to summarize the course of a technical standpoint, I would say evenings, games, construction, education.
But that's not all, there is also the exchange, team spirit and friendship. This training
create a unique bond between everyone in a few days, when I started the internship, I did not really such links could be formed in such a short time.
the last day, when they announce the verdict of the course, namely "satisfactory" or "unsatisfactory", I realized it was over, and I certainly never see jamais une très grande partie des autres stagiaires, qui sont devenu pour la plupart mes amis.


Lors de mon stage 2, le stage pratique, je devais être l’un des premiers a le passé, la colonie de l’Aubette a commencé 6 jours après la fin de mon stage 1. Dans l’ensemble il s’est bien passé, malgré quelques histoires plutôt dérangeantes. Ce n'était pas le pays des Bisounours comme dirait Sophie !

Enfin voilà le stage 3, l’approfondissement. Quand j’avais la fiche d’inscription devant moi, j’ai rempli avec comme spécificité « grands jeux, veillées, animations festives . I mainly chose this one to the festive ambiance, history to use the equipment I already own.
The first day for those taking the bus, we had an appointment at 7am in Issy-Les-Moulineaux. It was 10.
Nobody has spoken of the whole trip. On arrival at the "pot of arrival" (hot chocolate or coffee) almost no talking. Then when
4 trainers, JP, Jean-Yves, Eli and Sophie we gather in a room for us to be this is where I said that ... it was really the BAFA. They
asked us to make drawings on a sheet of what we liked and what they disliked. The atmosphere was relaxed, we were all in the same boat.
When we moved into the rooms, we each took a bed, then looked at each other without saying a word. Then a brief review of the first names that I can not remember right now, it was more story to break the silence. It is
As for hours, meals, activities that one has discovered. During the first 2 days, with Tristan and I was pretty boys in my room.
Sunday evening I asked Jean-Yves, if I could change the group, and go into the theater. Done the next day.
I changed because I want to do theater for 2 years but I have no time, and Jean-Yves told me they would festive animation in both groups.
The first day of my score because I incarnated theater oak Oak and the Reed, or a character from the famous painting The Raft of the Medusa
... But I'm really broke at the time of writing, with all the theater, the evening show. The number of times it was going delirious avec Jean-Yves, notamment pour le spectacle interactif, celui où le public choisissait le déroulement de la suite, c’est lui qui a déliré sur les deux petit amis de Jennyfer qui deviennent gays et qui vont prendre une douche pour arriver trempés sur scène ! N’empêche, j’ai beaucoup ris.
Comme au stage général, j’ai aussi fait connaissance de personnes inoubliable, être en internat pendant 5 jours et passé beaucoup de temps avec des personnes qui sont là pour la même chose, ça créer des liens, des liens forts. Je sais bien que je ne reverrais pas tout le monde (à moins d’un « After » chez Jean-François !), car j’étais closer to some people than others, it's normal in five days, we can not create a great relationship with 40 people, but there are some people who stand out.
For once I start with the guys: Tristan, one of the guys in my room, one of the first people with whom I was beginning internship.
Christopher, the oldest of the course without anyone noticing, as he said, he took a shot of old, but it's a guy who is still young at heart and I do not ask myself the question of his age, for me everyone was the same age, that of lead.
Jean-François (JF for short) , he was part of the club of theater people, but like all theater people, he was very open.
Willy, also theater people, a little guy probably shy at first but was able to play its role as "woi" and "father of Jennifer" and her role as "sad clown". The savior of the evening went shopping, I have raved with him too.
For girls, there is first Pauline, the theater people, the blonde of the troupe, a girl who knows how to let go when necessary.
Marion, I would say the most crazy in the best sense of the word, that which does not head and making everyone laugh.
Julie , as theater people, perhaps the biggest mouth of all, one who wanted to live in the 70's I think ^ ^
Eleanor , the girl who takes her accent noble sometimes is laughing all the time who can not get a word when I talk (from it) is the Jessica group!
Anita , 1m48 personality, the smallest of all, the photographer of course, la mascotte, la plus petite fille que je connaisse qui est plus vieille que moi!
Nathaly , le clown, avec ses mimiques, elle me faisait rire pendant les sketches !
Rifaat , une fille que je n’ai pas beaucoup connue pendant le stage, mais plus après, une fille qui délire autant que sa cousine.
Gulshan , la cousine de Rifaat, une fille qui rigole beaucoup aux bêtises que je peux dire, que j’aime bien taquiner, que j’adore.
Et enfin Josépha , un petit bout de fille dont j’ai fait connaissance seulement 2 jours après le début du stage, et avec qui je me suis tout de suite entendu, on a beaucoup ri, beaucoup screwed up, I teased a lot for a little while, we had already told our life after the third day of training, we were on the same wavelength.

I did not quote anyone because I do not have much affinity with each of you, unfortunately, 5 days is short and I wanted to know some more people like Anaëlle, Audrey, Nelly, Anthony and others ... BAFA is one of the best things that ever happened to me being completely disconnected from your monotonous life for a week and be immersed in the community and sharing, it makes a world of good. I realize that now, when I'm at my computer, like almost every other day of the year, my life of daily routine, schedules, anxiety, boredom, has remained cloistered in Regardless, I regret almost 3 "Bon Appetit" yelled at each meal by Victorio ^ ^ ...

ULTIMATE So I say a thank you to everyone I have met during this exciting training, in addition to those set out just above, I speak also of those of stage 1 as Clemence, 2 Sandra, Eloise, Adele, Amanda, Danae and Jeremy. Thank you to the trainers, stage 1 as Lawrence that I saw during my stage 3, and 4 trainers of the course 3, Fantastic 4, 4 which complement!

Thank you all!

And I end as I began:

"Animate is to love without N and without hatred. .

We left Almaty at 7:20 am as scheduled. During takeoff, Julia fell asleep in the arms of his mother. Fifteen minutes later, she was awake and very happy. We gave him a bottle of milk, but she seemed to have no appetite for the latter, probably due to the stresses of the aircraft. The flight went very well, Julia slept about two hours.

We arrived in Amsterdam around 10:40 am but we waited about 30 minutes in the air by the time the gate is released. He had to go to boarding our next flight to 2:05 p.m. so we had three hours to kill. Around 11:30 we gave a dinner for Julia, she had eaten two meals: a whole jar of pureed meat and vegetables and the rest of his pablum she did not want the plane. Then came the turn to mom and dad to go eat. We're pretty original, a good McDonalds hihihihi ;-) Let me after two of another type of nutrition, it was appreciated by most. Thereafter, we walked to and fro in the airport when entering shops duty free. During all this time, Julia was fighting fatigue while sitting in the stroller while looking around. We were pretty discouraged because over a period of thirteen hours she has slept only two. Fortunately, she has slept a good portion of the flight between Amsterdam and Montreal.

We arrived in Montreal at 17:15. The time for Immigration Canada and Quebec as well as picking up our stuff, it had already gone 18.00. When we passed the exit doors, we were greeted by our families. It was an unforgettable and full of emotion. Julia was so tired that she missed her home in Quebec by our relatives but she woke up a little later. We were pretty tired from our trip, but to see our families a re-energized. Julia was a little embarrassed at first but she quickly caught and liked to cuddle with her new family. His great-papiloup was very proud because for supper, he made her laugh heartily.

She loves her brothers, she is constantly making their beautiful smiles. Also, she loves our cats and Froufrou Grippette. It becomes all excited and she laughed every time she sees them. It's very funny. We're really pleased, we could not hope for a better back home!

Mom and Julia in front of the old parliament in Almaty

This morning, Julia was the grace morning she got up to 8 hours. She had to return to sleep since we arrived in Almaty. In fact, his sleep is slightly disturbed from Uralsk, probably due to the changing environment.

This afternoon, Natasha went to the apartment to hand over the papers of Julia: passport, visa, birth certificate translated into English, etc.. We have also paid him costs of the apartment and transportation. In the afternoon, we walked Panfilov Park, a park known here in Almaty where there is a beautiful Orthodox church that was built without nails.

The last Orthodox church in Almaty

Again, we had a beautiful sunny day at 30 degrees Celsius. One thing is certain, we can not complain about the temperature during our trip. When we were in Uralsk, we would on a website to see the temperature and it worked well. So, before coming to Almaty, we checked sur ce même site pour planifier nos bagages. Il prévoyait de beaux 18 degrés et ensoleillé. Nous avons donc bien serré notre linge d’été et jeté les sandales de Yan. Comme une belle surprise, depuis que nous sommes à Almaty, il fait toujours des 30 degrés à tous les jours. Isabelle s’est bien marée de Yan et de ses gros souliers noirs. Hi! Hi! Hi! Surtout que c’est elle qui a jeté les sandales, woups!

Ce soir, nous buvons notre dernière bière Kazak et goûtons à un mets à base de riz typique d’ici : le plov. Lorsque Julia ira se coucher, nous re-paquerons nos valises et par la suite nous irons faire dodo de bonne heure. En effet, Natasha to pick us up at 4:45 tomorrow morning. Here is our flight plan: Almaty 7:20 ET start arriving in Amsterdam 10:40 (flight time 7:20 minutes) from Amsterdam arrived at 3:20 p.m. ET 4:35 p.m. Toronto (flight time 7:15 minutes).

This morning, we phoned Aniela to know the name of our street to our place in the city map. Same time, she told us that Natasha had been informed that all the papers of Julia to enter Canada had arrived from Moscow. Hooray! We also telephoned KLM to take the information to buy the plane ticket from Julia. He had to attend in person. So we found the office of KLM map and it was possible to go walking. We're gone in the afternoon. Almaty is beautiful, there is among other beautiful parks, beautiful walkways and beautiful luxury shops.

It is said that Almaty is the ¨ Big Apple ¨ Kazakhstan! At KLM, we had a very good service, we could have even changed the date of our tickets directly from here. We asked if we could get seats with a small bassinet and we're lucky, there were some available in both flights. We are very happy, maybe it helps our bodies sleep Julia during flights. We're officially ready to go. Returning, we stopped at the wonderful grocery store down from our apartment, wow, it's really kind of IGA Kazak! Tonight, we eat skewers of marinated chicken. Yum!

Good evening!

Julia est prête à partir
Julia is ready to go

Julia got up at 6:00 this morning she wanted to be sure we are ready to time. Hi! Hi! Hi! The morning passed very quickly: finalization of baggage and household. Elvira came to pick us up at 11:00 as planned. We had a different driver who was very careful driving. It was different from some cowboys! At the airport, Elvira was the check in our luggage with us and stayed with us until the verification of passport, birth certificate of Julia and tickets. Then, there were only forty-minute wait before entering the plane.
Voyage de luxe en première classe
luxury travel in first class

The plane ride went well with Julia. She cried a little but that was because it was time for his drinking and because she was tired. She slept about thirty minutes into the arms of mothers during the flight. Our $ 200 for first class was an excellent investment. We were greeted with champagne, which was delicious, we ate well, we had excellent service and we had lots of space. It was perfect for our first plane ride with Julia. Say that quality will be missed for the next flight!

When we arrived in Almaty, Natasha was waiting for us and was very happy to see us and meet Julia. It was her husband who was our driver. During the journey, we talked on the phone with our translator who is named Aniela, it is assumed remind us later. Finally, we will stay in an apartment for our short stay in Almaty. We are very happy, it's a real palace: fireplace, air conditioning, kitchen, lounge, dining room, bathroom and bedroom with a bed for Julia. In addition, it is very clean, safe and very well located. We live in a beautiful rich neighborhood where we can take nice walks with Julia and have a nice grocery store open 24 hours just below the apartment. Tonight, Yan has cooked skewers of marinated sheep accompanied by peppers (green, yellow, red) and it was delicious. We

love.

Ce matin, pendant le seul éclairci de la journée, nous sommes allés faire nos dernières commissions. Ce n’était pas chaud, nous avons donc acheté des petites mitaines pour Julia. Elles paraissent géantes comparativement à ses petites mains, mais elles font la job. Autant nous avons connu de grandes chaleurs accompagnées de soleil, maintenant c’est le froid et la pluie qui prennent place. Nous sommes contents d’avoir eut la chance de connaître Uralsk pendant l’été.

the restaurant Shishkebabs

Tonight we invited Evira to sup with us. It leads us to eat in the best restaurant ¨ ¨ shishkebabs Uralsk. Yan dream of eating for some time. It picks us up around 17:30, we look forward.

Tomorrow, our flight is at 12:55 and must arrive at the airport an hour and a half before the flight. Elvira so we will try to 11.00. So we will have mass time to finalize the luggage. We will arrive in Almaty at 16h55 (there, there is a ten-hour time difference with Quebec). We do not know if we will stay in a hotel or an apartment, and we do not know when we will have access to the Internet and if it will work fine. Do not worry if there is a delay before our next post.

We thank everyone who followed our blog so far and to everyone who supported us during the steps of our adoption plan. We also want to say a big thank you to our agency that allowed us to experience this beautiful and realize a great dream.

We really look forward to seeing you!

Happy Birthday Mamy Lyne

Gros bisou pour Mamy Lyne
Big kiss for Mamy Lyne

Live from Uralsk, we'll sing: Happy Birthday Mom Happy Birthday Mom, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday Mom. My dear Mother, it's your turn to let you talk about love, dear Mother, it's your turn to let you talk about love, hippipip houra! Hello Mom, we wish you spent a great day. We are so happy that your health is better, we were very worried before you go ... We love you very much, we look forward to seeing you again and we send lots of kisses. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

We received our new airline tickets. Elvira will print them for us and we will present tomorrow during our last dinner in Uralsk. We started our luggage, we have half done. The rest will have to wait because it's things that we still need. Today, we stayed inside all day pretty as it is rainy outside. Moreover, it was fresh, it was only 17 degrees and Isabella, it seemed like a 13 degrees in Quebec! We wanted to buy baby food for Julia missing until we return to Quebec, but it must wait until tomorrow, he announced the most beautiful weather. Julia is doing well. It is practiced very hard to walk on all fours. It is very funny, it gives a boost with his foot or sometimes she pulls the blanket for his toys rather than forward. It still follows a lot of timing of meals and naps in the orphanage. She still does not drink all his milk, but it follows the recommended amounts depending on their age on the box of milk Nutrilak and she makes more than the orphanage. By cons, depending on what we read, these quantities are somewhat lower than those recommended in Canada. We not yet made the switch from milk. We bring their milk here and we'll do the crossover of milk at home. Regarding his diet, it is excellent. She likes to eat and try new foods. She did not have much appetite in the morning at sunrise, but it takes a little later and for other meals. In short, she's still adorable and she makes us extremely happy!

Spend an enjoyable evening on Saturday night.

Turns Red After Lunch

Day relaxes

Julia qui se prépare pour une petite marche

Allo à tous, notre journée à été très relaxe. Dehors, c’était nuageux avec des possibilités d’orage. Nous avons quand même pris une mini marche jusqu’au Univermag pendant un éclaircit, et c’était chaud et humide. Nous sentions beaucoup la pollution. À part cela, ça été notre petite routine habituelle. Nous avons hâte de partir, alors les journées nous semblent beaucoup plus longues. De plus, nos armoires et notre frigo sont pratiquement vides et nous n’avons plus d’idées quoi cuisiner. Nous avons le mal du pays!!! Nous allons probablement commencer tranquillement nos bagages demain, to set aside time on Sunday for the household. We are awaiting confirmation of our new electronic tickets. We hope to receive them today to have them printed by Elvira before leaving for Almaty. We are bored ...

What Is The White Discharge Before A Period

The countdown has begun

Julia dans son nouveau pyjama
Julia in her new pajamas

Today the weather is cloudy in Uralsk. We still went for a walk because it was not raining. We went to spend Julia. Because she grew up and we'll few days in Almaty which will not be able to wash, Julia needed a small set of long sleeved pajamas and more. It was hard to find pajamas, he had nowhere to the right size. So we made reservations in wet towel and pablum. We take this opportunity to make our provisions for Julia in Uralsk, because we know the different stores. For the rest of the day was the usual routine.


Julia dans son nouvel ensemble
Julia in her new set

As expected, our travel agent in Montreal reschedule our flights for September 18. On the website of KLM, it was written to deal with our travel agency if we had bought tickets this way, which is our case. By cons, Marietta travel agent informed us that it is an extra $ 30 per ticket compared to do by ourselves. Because our home phone Uralsk scratchy and is not really functional, we find much easier to pass through Marietta. Regarding Julia, we have to buy his ticket to Almaty.

We love you.

Pinnacle Tvcenter Pro Net Framework

Purchase of air tickets

Julia qui se brosse les dents
Julia who brushes his teeth

During our attachment, we've noticed that Julia had a stain that looks like a cavity on one of its two teeth?? Later, we saw a soft toothbrush for babies 6 months, we have therefore bought him. Obviously, she did not want to brush her teeth. So whenever mom brushes her teeth, she shows her toothbrush Julia and Julia takes her in his hands. Now, she even lets him put in the mouth for a second or two. This morning, Julia made us all laugh, she looked at mom and dad who brushed their teeth and she put herself his toothbrush in his mouth! She loves to imitate us. She also imitates when we make byebye.

On their lunch, Elvira called us to give us an appointment at 17:00 to buy our tickets from Uralsk to Almaty. So here is the flow of our papers in the coming days: The passport will be stamped by Julia September 11 in Astana, he will visit Moscow on 12 and Sept. 15 to be stamped there and to issue the visa, finally, will be back in Almaty on September 16. Following the good advice of Elvira and Anna, we will reschedule our tickets to leave Kazakhstan September 18 at 7:20 am arriving at Montreal at 16:35. Thus, we have a day of games. We start from Uralsk, Monday, September 15 at 12:55. For an additional one hundred dollars per ticket for this flight, we'll travel first class. We benefit because it will probably be the only time in our lives that we will. Indeed, with other airlines, it is not affordable. We will be in Almaty for two whole days, so we'll visit a little. We'd love to see the mountains and go into the mega mall.

It misses you!

Julia qui veut manger ses pieds
Julia, who wants to eat her feet

Julia spent a great day today. She was in good spirits, smiling and with a very good condition compared to yesterday. In addition, she made no fever. By cons, she does not drink as much milk as usual. She drinks a small amount and after she does not want, she just wants to eat his baby food and cereal. Between meals, she drinks water and does not drink milk. In recent days, we find that she grew up. We therefore measured this afternoon. She grew three inches since she was at the apartment, it'll be two weeks tomorrow that she is with us! She has also fattened, it is a bit more plump. We're very happy. We went for a walk earlier than usual because we had no water and we could not wash. We went to the mall Univermag and we took advantage of air conditioning. Indeed, the heat is back for a few days: today, it was 35 degrees Celsius on the thermometer. It's supposed to go down between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius from tomorrow. Isabelle begins to run out of laundry. One of its two pairs of shorts and could not button is on the verge of splitting at the bottom so it is worn, one of her bras and a hoop lost three of its six short-sleeved tops are broken! ! Moreover, with a baby who eats on the couch, our clothes are always dirty. It really is time to return to Canada. Hi! Hi! Hi! In the afternoon, Julia took a bath with dad and she was equally upset than usual. She loves water, it does not bother her pas du tout d’avoir de l’eau qui lui coule dans les yeux et sur son visage. C’est sûr que maman va suivre des cours de natations avec elle.

Nous vous souhaitons une belle soirée!

Isabelle, Yan et Julia

Les deux petits singes

Ce matin, Julia s’est levée de bonne humeur. Elle a déjeuné et joué avec son papa car maman avait un énorme mal de tête, comme si elle couvait un virus. Maman s’est adjourned at 9:00 am and Julia began to be marabou. So we went to bed. An hour later, she woke up crying hard, she had great difficulty. After a good bottle, cereal and fruit puree, it was bath time. Again, she was super excited and it was his butterfly stroke. Amazing how she's funny and it expends energy. Obviously, she was burned out of her bath with Mom.


Bébé qui ne file pas trop
Bebe who did not run too

In the afternoon, Julia has would not drink her milk, she only drank a forty milliliters. Mom realized at that moment, touching his forehead, that Julia was hot. Fortunately, it was only a slight fever (100.9 F). She even had two sores on his buttocks newly emerged. We gave acetaminophen to relieve it, it is chigneuse, but has no other symptoms of infection at the moment.

Meanwhile, Elvira called us to make us aware that people who work at the spot where the passport is stamped in Uralsk Julia are in the juice. It is not sure she has the passport before 17:00, so it will not leave for Astana today. So he will leave tomorrow evening, but the guy who stamp the passports is on leave Wednesday, so it will not stamp the passport before Thursday! This means that we will not leave Sunday as we had hoped. We'll keep you posted.

Have a nice evening!

Nouvelle face de Julia

Julia Julia is an excellent alarm clock, how nice to wake up on gagagagous and beautiful smiles. It instantané, notre journée commence sur le bon pied. Ce matin, nous avons joué avec Julia et elle nous faisait plein de faces drôles. On aurait dit qu’elle imitait faire la baboune, un vrai petit clown!!! Ensuite, elle a pris son bain avec son papa et elle était tellement comique. Il faut par contre être vigilant, car elle aime tellement l’eau qu’elle en est dangereuse. Elle bouge énormément. Elle fait maintenant sa nage papillon dans l’eau, un vrai petit poisson. Elle arrose partout, elle avale de l’eau, elle se donne des poussés avec ses pieds. C’est simple, on dirait qu’elle veut plonger.

In the afternoon we went walking. Julia settled two feet in the air, leaning against the edges of her stroller. How hard life baby! Hi! Hi! Hi! No joke, Julia seems to have a toothache. She loves her teething, she always rubs his gums up while dribbling to the max. Also, it has less appetite than usual.

Returning from our walk, we made our real Kazakhs. We bought a beer (by the format of beer is 500 ml and they cost generally less than $ 1.00) and we drank in the street walking. And yes, in Kazakhstan, it's legal to drink alcohol in the street!


Have a nice evening, we love you and think of you.
