A Wednesday in Kiev

We spent most of the day in a local café… one with English menus!!  We stopped for breakfast with Natasha- then headed out to see some of the churches.  We went to see the beautiful architecture- and took some great pictures.  We even stopped at the flea market to pick up some souvenirs from a vendor friend of Natasha’s.  Jake rattled off his list- and had a great time examining every egg, painting and box to select just the right one.  Then we headed off to St. Michaels- where we lit a candle for Shannon and Lilly.  Lots of pictures!!  Then we headed back to the café to meet with Svetlana and go through the details of our meeting tomorrow.  3 hours later J and Pam may have enough detail!!  Amazing how much of what we had ‘learned’ from previous travelers/web boards was not true…Our meeting is at 4pm- last one of the day- so we will head out to take the cable car across the city tomorrow morning.  Paul has headed to the market- and Pam and Jake went to the Wi-Fi café- where Jake has not ceased to impress.  When the waiter walked up and started speaking Ukrainian- with out a beat- Jake answered in Ukrainian “Can you find someone who speaks English?”  Bless him!  We will follow up after our meeting tomorrow (plus that's when the Wi-Fi place opens!!)
