In Kiev now, and I miss my doggies. I sketched them using black Derwent water soluble pencils. They look more like two big puppies in this drawing, just the way I'd like them to be forever...
Kiev is a charming city with the blend of Russian and European touch. The city landscape is decorated with enormous and ornated buildings - some are historical - while the wide sidewalks serve as the runway of the Ukrainian fashion concious women. Subways are deep inside the underground tunnels with thousands of steps. Can't imagine if the escalator does not work.
Had dinner at Hydropark last night - a big Soviet style amusement park establishment. It was a windy and cold evening. Lonely planet recommended 'shashlik', borshch, vodka, and deruny (potato pancakes), and they were all good. Like usual, we ordered one too many.
