Kiev - Part II


"This is statue of Ukranian woman" ~ cab driver. Actually, it's the monument and memorial for the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945 (a.k.a. WWII). A pretty cool sight. Many Soviet aricraft, artillery, etc. to look at.


War... what is it good for?


"In Ukraine, tank drive YOU!!"



A beautiful Ukranian monestary.


Just cruisin' down the streets of Kiev with a road soda. No big deal. Road sodas are tolerated -- nay -- encouraged. There are beer vendors everywhere and you can take your "traveler" with you on the bus, into shops, etc. It works over there, so why can't we do it back home????

But alas, that evening it was time to say farewell to the land of road sodas and move on.... next stop, CAIRO!!
