At Coney Island on Day Zero

Hello Atlantic ocean! I hope to see you again in three months.
After weeks of green card preparation and fighting with the Russian embassy it's pleasant to just sit on the beach and watch the waves.

Outside the USCIS building in Garden City

It's a beautiful day and the drive here was unexpectedly smooth: we're two hours early. We're going to head in  and see if they'd like to interview us anyway. It's green card day! Keep your fingers crossed for us.
