Our dear friend Avie is letting us stay in her flat while we are touring Sevastopel on the Crimean Peninsula of Ukraine. It was so nice to see Ira, and her friends from church, Galya and Nikolai yesterday out the window of the train as we were coming into the station. What a blessing to have a strong man there to help us get our bags off the train and up into the flat once we got there. It was so nice to wake up under the same roof with our daughters for the first time.
We wandered down to the city center even though it was windy and chilly enough to take your breath away. Waves were splashing up over the steps of the walk along the sea. The girls didn't want to stop they were so enjoying seeing this beautiful city. We left the flat at 11 and didn't get back until about 6 returning by trolley.
Today we spent on tour seeing the Alupka Palace, Lavidia Palace, the Sparrows Nest, Foros Church and the Yalta boardwalk. I asked the girls when we got back to Sevastopel what they enjoyed about the day. They couldn't pick favorites. They said it all was so spectacular. "Klas!" they kept repeating all day. What a grand finish at a Tatar restaurant. Cusna (delicious)as they say here! And although it was cloudy when we got up this morning, the Lord blessed us with beautiful sunshine just as we drove in to our first stop at the Foros Church and for the rest of the day. Blessings,
