Another Day





Life in Kyiv is not too different from life at home. On Wednesday, we traveled to an American style mall where we ate McDonalds, ice skated, and window shopped. Yesterday, we went to a beach on the Dnepr River. The beach was similar to the Balboa fun zone. There were all kinds of fun things to do. The girls had a blast on the water slides and went on a bumper boat ride after they swam in the river.


Today was laundry day. Thankfully, our friends from Mississippi offered us their washing machine. Our new apartment does not have a washing machine and neither one of us wanted to do laundry in our apartment bathtub. So, Tami spent most of the day at their apartment doing laundry while I stayed at our apartment watching the kids. I think they broke a record for time on the internet playing at their new favorite web site called “Club Penguin”. Tonight, we walked to a park so the kids could run around a little. Before we knew it, it was 9:30 and time to head home. The playground was still full of kids and there was plenty of daylight when we left. Just another day in Kyiv. Thanks for checking in.
