Kyiv, Ukraine from the air.
Just arrived at Kiev Airport!
A most welcoming place.
Kyiv urban art.
Ukranian Hryvnia. That's about $40 USD.
Getting photobombed by the merch babe Victor!
Interesting menu items.
I've only ever seen pictures of this statue, the Motherland Monument.
The Dnieper river, that runs right through Kyiv.
The statues and church across from our hotel. I walked there (~2.75mi).
You always see cool things on foot that you wouldn't normally see from a car. I love walking.
Lots of statues and monuments in this part of the world.
At the Motherland Monument there's a lot of history surrounding WWII relics.
Tiny little tanks... did they conscript kids to drive these?
Again, being on foot allows one a great vantage point that wouldn't be visible from a car.
More cool urban art.
At the Motherland Monument, checking out the view.
This big ol' girl is like 91m tall. It's absolutely breathtaking.
Description of the monument and area.
Looking back towards the church area.
They all stand majestic.
Urban art.
Home at last
