Greetings from Ukraine
May 23, 2009, 08:22:00 PM
I have been in Ukraine a week now, internet access for me is still spotty at home, supposed to have it, but it is a pain in the bum to get reliable service.  Crazily I can take my laptop to the MacDonalds and sip on black tea and surf the net.

I love Ukraine, land of much of my family, and land where I can eat raspberry this and that to my heart's content.  Gees, I can even buy raspberry juice and soda.  I eat raspberry bread, raspberry yogurt and raspberry candy.  The weather here has been great until today, usually sunny and +18 or so, but today it is about +13 and rainy.

I am starting to slip on my Russian, frankly some Ukrainian words are easier than Russian, and I am letting them slip into my vocabulary.  We had a great visit to Amsterdam on the way to home here last week, saw a small Rijkmuseum exhibit at Schiphol.

My youngest daughter is becoming a bit of a flirt here, like now she wants boyfriend Sasha or Ilya or something.  Gees, the four year old is a princess.

All right ScottishMoney you can send some Raspberry soda to Indiana and, while you are at it, send some beautiful Ukraine silver along with it. No use wasting shipping money on raspberries alone!!! ;D And don't forget the KOTCT store when grabbing up loose change but keep in mind BIG is better!!! ;)
