A statue for Babushka women
What do the drivers do when the tourists are in the museums? Vladimir was great! He was our driver here in Kiev.
Bible study at one of the three remaining shuls in Kiev.
Authentic Soviet jackets for sale in the market.
The view from St. Sophia.
An important church in Kiev.
Ukrainian design - the cupolas resemble a woman's skirt.
Closeup of a gorgeous piece of art in St. Sophia. Each of these elements is a hand painted egg. See below for a larger view.
No Starbucks in Kiev, but we found the bagel joint next to the temple.
View looking into the temple. During the Soviet time, all temples were closed and churches destroyed. This temple became the stage for the Muppet Theatre. In 1991, post Soviet, the temple reopened.
Larger view of the art piece made of eggs.
I've gained 3 kilos. The culprit? Too many blinis! This one was poppyseed and honey. |OMG!!!!
