10. Just checked out

your other picture thread. Great churches. How opulent! Did you get a chance to go inside? Do you write a journal when you travel?

[MissHoneychurch]

12. Yes, we went inside of them too

we took everything we could get :)

No, I didn't write a journal. I almost never do.

16. The sky is wide in Ukraine

you know that their flag means "blue sky over fields of wheat"



True enough. I admit though, that I used an UV filter that made the sky even more blue :)

19. What an interesting history that place has!

And isn't it the Ukraine where the Chernobyl disaster happened? I really want to go there. I love the old Soviet Block.

21. You are correct

Chernobyl isn't too far from Kiev actually. North of it.

If you ever have the chance to go, go!! It is really worth it.
