Hello,
Seems that we have not had enough of Ukraine over this gas issue. So Svet and I will leave Russia and be gone about a week to Kiev, Ukraine on business. If we get everything done quickly maybe Svet & I can do some sight seeing and take lots of pictures. 🙂
I have a new camera phone that takes pictures as good as my regular camera. It is a 3 mega pixel camera phone from Samsung. (Samsung U800) I am so happy with the phone and have started to take pictures with it on our Russian photo Blog.
I am going to try to get the pulse of what is happening first hand in Ukraine. The last time I was there the city seemed so out of touch with reality. It seems to be having a major struggle with the direction that she seems to want to go in the future. (Link) That struggle includes major issue with Russia and that I feel is Ukraine’s downfall. Ukraine needs to remember her roots and Russia is a large part of who and what Ukraine is.
So, who knows what interesting things we will uncover in Kiev. We are planning on taking a train out of Russia because of the weather this time of the year and will leave around 8:00 pm or 20:00 (Moscow Time) Tuesday night. Should be safer than trying to travel Russia’s country roads much less the roads in Ukraine.
We will try to keep the posting up but that counts on the internet that Kiev has and the last time it was not very good.
We can not wait, We love train rides and always have so much fun traveling by train.
Kyle & Svet
