What a weekend! We spent the weekend in Kiev and had such a refreshing, wonderful time. We will head out bright and early tomorrow morning to take a taxi and a bus back to Zhitomir for meetings at MTU.
This weekend has been a fabulous whirlwind of fun with our Vineyard friends. We stayed with Sergei, the pastor, his wife Alyona and kids Anya and Vanya. They speak about as much English as we do Russian, so it's been quite the adventure. (Honestly. their English is better than our Russian, but who's counting?) There's been a lot of sign language, google translate, and shrugs with laughter.
I'd love to write more, but I'm so tired I can barely keep my eyes open. Tomorrow night after we're done with MTU for the day we'll have some downtime. I'll fill you in on all the details then.
Here's some pics to give you a taste of our weekend fun!
1. Jed joined in on the bass at a concert Friday night. 2. Anya, Olya, and yummy waffles. 3. Aslan is on the move! Hehe 4. Anya and I gettin' our photo booth on. 5. Sunny walks after delicious Sunday feasting.
Just think how much Russian you'll know in one year's time!
