Hello from Kiev!

We made it!  And Dang, Kiev is such a cool city. Despite all the turmoil that has happened here since I last visited a month or so ago, it looks pretty much the same. The big statue of Lenin is down and there's a really cool looking barricade around Independence Square (Maidan, as the locals call it), but otherwise it looks the same to me. Apartments were slim pickings being New Year's and all. Our place isn't that great but the location is fun, near the TGIFriday's for those who know.  We are about a half mile walk to Independence Square.  Victor took his son there yesterday--he says it is very safe and we should definitely go check it out. We will later today.

Sasha is trying to get the tv to work while I try to get comfortable on the lumpy bed.

We're another step closer to the end.
