We decided to go see all the sights that we never got around to today- with a plan for lunch at the only Mexican in Kiev.  We started in the Black Market and headed to lower Podil...we saw church after church after church.  Onion domes glistening.  We found the Mexican literally hidden in a back street.  We ordered Carnitas and Nachos.  It wasn't bad- but once again, not what we were expecting.  On a Sunday afternoon- we were the only people in the restaurant that maybe had 12 booths.  We tried to give the waitress advice on how to better translate the menu, and she seemed appreciative and pointed it out to the manager.  We crossed Podil and headed for the Funicular, to the upper city.  We walked across to St Sophia and paid 2hrg to get on the grounds- only to find it was 20hrg to get into the church itself!!!  So we wandered back out- and then down the hill towards the Opera House and the Golden Gate.  We stopped for drinks at a little cafe- again to be dismayed with what we ordered.  Pam ordered (in Russian) black tea with lemon and received a tea that had a strong smell and taste of peach and honey.  Paul ordered the "Americana" hot chocolate... and just like Jake- ended up with Hersey's syrup in a cup.  We wandered back across the city to see the university, more churches and LOTS of statues.  After 5 hours of walking and 5-6 miles up and down hills, we were both exhausted and voted on coming home!  (Plus it was getting dark anyway!)
