We are constantly having problems staying on-line here in our apartment. We have high speed, but it's through a cable and one end of it is broken. We are constantly being thrown off-line.
I've included a couple of shots from our balcany. The street view is right below our balcany - notice how all the cars park kitty-wampus? The car that's actually driving must manuver around the parked vehicles. The walkers (and there are lots of them) must manuever around everything else.
The other pic is the building directly out from our balcany. Mark & Sally, from this view, the apartment you sayed in was directly to the left. If you were to turn right and head over one block, you would be near the potato house. :) Praise God, they have Pepsi.
Coffee is actually a heavy capacino or latte here. Mark and Sally pre-warned us that they do not drink regular coffee here. In fact, when we get away from the capitol Kiev, we will be hard pressed to find any kind of coffe but instant (in some places).
Last night we purchased minutes on a Ukrainian cell phone Sergiy has loaned to us. It has pics of his 3 year old daughter, making a snowman on it. She's simply adorable. He also have a beautiful wife and a 6 month old son. We are hoping to meet them today, but we don't know what the day will hold. We've got some gifts for each of them, and the super sized jar of Peanut butter Mark & Sally sent over. It's hard to find here.
Well John's mastered the shower and just got out. I'm going to convince him to teach me how to run it. We'll probably go to McDonalds for breakfast. This one serves breakfast (and hopefully normal coffee). Sergiy will be calling us early (somewhere around 9 or 10am, lol!). They are late nighters here!
Good bye for now - we'll see if we can update more later.
Much love to you all.
Thank you so ever much for your prayers!
John & Jenn
