Here are a few pictures from Kiev. Some places were really beautiful and modern, and other places were incredibly run down.

Someone had planted this little garden right outside the door of our apartment in Kiev. It was a little spot of beauty along the street. This is Drew, Michael, and Jen. This was right before our SDA appointments. We were outside waiting for Irina to pick us up. Notice Drew and Jen are dressed up. Michael kindly wore jeans to make me feel better. All I had were jeans since my luggage was floating around somewhere.

This was right by the garden. I wonder why they put the trash by the bin instead of inside the bin?

Lots of graffiti everywhere.

This little playground was near our apartment in Kiev.
