Great pictures, Noel.
And those three kids in the first picture--I mean the expressions they have in the first picture--look like they'd make great characters for a novel, don't they?
Loved the Russian churches. What a great trip? Were you struck by the sense of history there? The US seems so young compared to everywhere else in the world, doesn't it?
Yeah, I could pretty much write a new novel, now.
:)
I loved Kiev. It was old and new squashed together, reminded me of Chicago, only older and dirtier. We ARE young, here. And we forget it. I saw the foundation of a church from 1100. Traveling to Europe puts Americans in their place, maybe.
