Life in Kiev...

The weekend started with torrential rains! We had one massive thunderstorm from 12:30-9:30 on Saturday. Thankfully we live on a hill.



Sunday was much nicer. Cool and sunny. We took advantage of the great weather and took a walk. Here is some of what we saw.



A memorial to the genocide victims of 1932-1933


A local musician



Church tops at St Michael's




He is still around....



St. Michael's


St. Andrew's


Old wooden church




The gates of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs...hmm..something isn't right there!

Summer Day

We took advantage of the gorgeous weather we are having and went for a walk. We returned to a place we frequented when we lived here before. The monastery you see was right behind our former house, now the Marine House, and next to Landon's office.
