The boys and I flew to Kyiv, Ukraine, Thursday afternoon to spend the weekend with Craig. We made it, but, wow, it is some serious work to get everybody packed, dressed, parked, ticketed, through security, through passport control, to the gate, to the plane, through the flight without upsetting other passengers, off the plane, to the luggage carousel, and, finally, though passport control. It is worth it for a weekend with Craig and a new adventure. There are no photos from Thursday because two hands weren't enough for the essential tasks, much less taking pictures.
Here are some sights from Friday...
 |
| Craig and Seth in front of St. Michaels Ukrainian Orthodox Church and Monestary |
 |
| While we were walking to the church this great babushka came to talk with us. She doted on the kids and told us that Seth would grow up to be a doctor (vrach) and Vic a pilot (lodchik). |
 |
| When traveling with kiddos, we always find the parks. |
 |
On the Khreshchatyk, the main street through Kyiv.
|
 |
| Fruit stand inside Bessarabsky Market, one of the oldest markets in Kyiv. |
 |
| The only remaining Lennin statue in Kyiv... and a recruiting spot for the Communist party. |
Great pictures Cary! I just love that the boys are having such a wordly upbringing. That picture of Craig and Seth with the woman is just a beautiful photograph! You and Craig are great parents! Love y'all and miss y'all!
ReplyDeleteThat photo with the babushka is priceless. And the wedding photos...I thought that was a pretzel on top of the car before I read the caption. And the thing on the hood looked funereal to me at first. Then it reminded me of the front of some underwear. Ooh la la.
