Saturday--It’s been two weeks!
Pictures 1) third naked guy we’ve seen swimming in Dnipro, right before the Full Monty. (I wouldn’t let Todd take a picture of the full moon.)
2) Robin on river walk
3) Todd in restaurant
4) Our sweet waiter who tries to speak English with us
5) Vadim’s pic of himself
6) Videogame palace
(Oops! They loaded out of order, but you can figure it out.)

So, poor Vadim is sick with a bad cold. He is just constantly coughing and sniffling. He was up a lot of the night. Poor guy. We’re all tired today. Went to video game palace despite this. Dropped some money there. Despite serious forewarnings about our cash limit before we went, he had a 45 minute pouting, hissy fit at the end about wanting even more. Sigh. It’s hard to take that level of grief over a few more grivna, after pouring everything we had into this trip and even asking friends and family for help. Then, of course, we remember, he’s just a kid like every other kid we know.
We are super glad to have figured out a cheap way to call home on our phones by registering for this service. It feels great to be able to call home and not have to wait for people to call and see if they can get through. The connection is much clearer and louder this way too.
. We are counting the days until we can all come home. I might be emailing out instructions for some of you to do some Christmas shopping for me. Love to everyone!

pouting over video games is universal! I want to see one of u swim with the naked man. Come on, where is your sense of adventure! Vadim looks great even with a cold. Do u need any cold meds sent over next week?
So what is the cheap way you found to call home? Please share!!!!
Yes - share the cheap way to call home!
Should we be concerned about your stalking of naked Ukrainian men?
You should view the hissie fits as a way of Vadim telling you that he is sooo sure of your unconditional love, that he can have a fit and know that you will still love him!
Your Haiku says it all! lol I was never so glad to get back to our blindingly bright Texas sun after spending a total of 9 weeks in Ukraine. I will never complain about the sun again;)
