Sunday night soccer game

Last night, we went out to dinner with Vanya. The food here is a little different, but still yummy. I had a salad that had two peach halves filled with chicken salad and cheese. We also had our favorite Ukrainian pizza which is topped with chicken, corn, and pineapple. The pizza here is small with thin crust, and sort of reminds me of the pizza from Panera. The kids always get cheese pizza, and I can tell from the waiters’ reaction, that this is quite unusual. There is always some additional dialog between our translator and the waiter and I’m assuming the waiter is saying, “Only cheese… nothing else? Are you sure? Well, that’s still going to cost you the same.”
After dinner, we went to the soccer game between two Kiev teams. Dynamo Kiev, which seems to be the most popular team here (and Kostya’s favorite), and the other team, whose name I don’t remember. Matt said it was sort of like the Lakers vs. the Clippers. It was fun, but the girls were getting bored by half time. Vanya went and got them an ice cream, which probably bought us an additional 20-30 minutes. We left before the game ended, which was probably good because we beat the crowd. When we left, Dynamo Kiev was winning 2-1, but I haven’t heard the final score. After a quick trip to the bakery and the market, we went home and went to bed.
