Today was tons of fun. We explored a lot more of the downtown part of Kiev and Tania, our native coordinator took us around and told us a lot of the history of being here. it was great. OH i got some post cards so whoever writes me a letter will get one! initiative people :)

Lindsay and i have been learning some russian from our lil sis christina... manners like thank you and colors which have been very helpful when we are going around the metro. I am pro at the metro though and always knwo where we are and where we need to be etc... so Tania told me that i need to make them independent so i pretended i had no idea where we were and made them figure it out. let me tell you they were horrible haha. we went on the blue instead of green and then went the wrong way on the green line. then i told tehm and they were like ha well i guess thats a good thing to make us figure it out.

I'm really excited to go to church tomorrow... that should be a fun adventure.

We had more training today and I am so excited to teach! i get to have the basic reading level kids so they are about 7-11 and havent been in ilp classes but learned written english. We have to do imagination type games to get them more involved and speaking instead.

it was cold today and a bit rainy, but i had my umbrella. typical rexburg weather which is funny.

Im so grateful i get to be here and have this experience.
Ukraine rocks!
