Vacation, Russsia, and the Ukraine
#1
In this dream, I had managed to talk my husband into taking me on a vacation. It wasn't easy because money was tight and we have a baby due any day, but somehow, he agreed and even planned the entire thing himself! He bought us nice plane tickets and we flew to this super fancy hotel somewhere out of the states. I have no idea where we were because we hardly left the hotel room. I was a bit sad that time seemed to go by so quickly as time seems to do when you are having fun. It seemed like we had been there in that beautiful room being pampered for about three days and it was time to pick up and go home. While packing, I asked about when our plane would depart to find that my husband did not buy plane tickets to take us home and we were dead broke. Horrified, I asked why he would spend ALL of the money without planning a way home and just how he had planned for us to get home now that we were broke. He just smiled and told me that we were going to walk through the Ukraine, not to worry.

We left the hotel and found ourselves in Russia of all places. We were in some sort of building crowded with people. Maybe a bus stop? There was a very nice Russian family that we spoke with and they made me feel as if we would be ok for whatever reason. They were clearly very poor with several children of their own, but seemed to be very happy in spite of being in this crowded building in freezing weather. I had to use the restroom in the dream, and had the wife/mother of the family help me find it. The bathroom stalls were small and flimsy and I got the feeling that there were cameras in that bathroom, but I had to go so bad, I just didn't care. I struggled to find an open stall and when I did, I tried to sit to do my business, but the cracks between the walls of all the stalls were so big, that I could easily see into other stalls to find that every other woman who went in there to do their business was sitting on the seats backwards. Feeling out of place, I hurried to get done and as I was leaving some sort of alarm went off and I was seized and searched because I had not gone to the restroom like the other women. After deciding I wasn't a threat, I was released and met back up with my husband in the crowded room. The family we had been talking to assured me that this happened quite often to visitors lately, and that I shouldn't let it bother me.

In the dream, It seemed like I was pregnant, but had my newborn with me. We were discussing how we were going to travel home to the family and the husband/father of the family gestured at my belly and newborn and told me that it was a very bad idea to try and go home through the Ukraine. It was very cold there and very dangerous for some reason. I thought this was wierd and didn't see how it should be much colder than Russia. We explained that our only way of getting back to America was through the Ukraine and that if we ever wanted to get home, we really had no choice and the man gave us a very odd look and shook his head.

I had to go make bottles for my new baby. I made two, but on my way out of a small area with a sink, I bumped into a stroller and got my bottles mixed with two other bottles that were nearly identical. Both had purple tops and bottoms with clear middles, but two were normal bottles and two could be pumped and sprayed into the baby's mouth. (Made sense in the dream) I was in such a hurry, I took all of the bottles. When I met up with my husband, I told him what had happened and showed him the bottles hoping that he could identify which was ours so that I could return the others, however, upon hearing what I had done, alarms went off, and our family was searched along with some other families. This time, the man from the kind family had to search and interrogate me. It was awkward, but he apologized and explained to me that it was something he had to do for whatever reason and he knew that I was not guilty of anything. After I was released, he had me and my husband follow him to this small shed where a secret meeting was taking place.

There was a small group of people in this shed. Everyone was searched upon entering and there was a small stand in the back of the building everyone gathered around. I was told that there were meetings like this going on all throughout Russia. These people discussed, more or less, how they wanted to be more like America and wanted to overthrow Putin for some reason. Someone mentioned something about a "super socialist plan" but I don't remember any details as to what it was... just that they were angry over something Putin had done or planned to do and they wanted to be more like America. My husband and I left the shed a little confused... but the family and members of whatever meeting we had gone to gave us a nice goodbye and directed us to an elderly man who could help us on our way to the Ukraine.

I found the elderly man living right on the edge of a massive cemetery. He lived in a small, decaying hut. The guy looked to be a hundred. He was very old with a very grumpy, wrinkled old face and long white beard and mega big eyebrows. He didn't seem to want to talk to me and did little other than give me the stink eye and a rude snort every time I tried to talk to him. There were two small, grumpy-looking mushroom statues near his home. I sat next to them while I fumed at how rude he had been and wondered what I should do. I had a small jar of Nutella and got a couple of sticks before calling my husband over to eat with me. I guess this jar of Nutella was about all we had to eat. As I swirled my stick around and got ready to eat the Nutella off of it, I looked again at the faces of the ugly, stone, mushroom lawn ornaments. For whatever reason, their gaping mouths made me want to shove that stick in them... so I did. (Again, it made sense in the dream) and when I did, their eyes lit up and that old man in the hut came waddling out to meet me as fast as he could. He was very excited and told me that he had spent ages trying to 'activate' those mushrooms and after talking about those mushrooms for some time, he allowed me to ask him about how to get to the Ukraine. He pointed to us which way we should go, but then warned us that we shouldn't go. Just as everyone else had said, he told us that it was way below freezing and very dangerous. Again, we explained that it was the only way to get home and that we had to go. We had bundled up in coats that hardly allowed us to move our arms. I had a carrier strapped to my body for the baby and it was very thick but allowed me to share my body heat with the infant... I thought we were very well prepared, but the man shook his head and told us again, that it was very dangerous and that we shouldn't go. We thanked him and left to go anyway.

We walked for a very long time before seeing the Ukraine. Once we were there, I was shocked. There was nothing there. Nothing. There were no people, no animals, no trees. Nothing. It was freezing and all you could see was white. Nothing but endless white. Snow, I guess... and tons of it. It was then that I decided that we had made a mistake. I didn't see how we would be able to travel through this for days... but my husband was insistent that it was the ONLY way home.

I can't remember much after that, but it seemed like we did make it home somehow, but just barely. When I told my husband this dream, I didn't think much of it... but it seemed to bother him for whatever reason and he insisted that if I do nothing else today, I enter this dream.
