Today we went to church at 10 am it was so awesome we triple their numbers they just love us there. they do an activity of some sort like every night of the week except Monday, yeah Monday random right the one day you would think the church would do something. Anyways, so church was great! Then Lisa's host sister named Lena wanted to take us around the city. So it was FREEZING today like i didn't believe these temperatures existed and i am still in my legging and dress and really thin boots. So i froze like FROZE but we went to a mcdonalds and ate some fries and they were not good. maybe i expected too much haha. Then we went into the center is what they call it and its just the middle of everything, we visited some churches and things like that they were really pretty but a little uncomfortable. O and it was a very very snowy day like i said and it never stopped so my shoes were completely soaked through so maybe that is why it wasn't enjoyable. We then left and usually around 7 me and Lisa start getting extremely tired because it is 4 in the morning there, her sister invited us to go ice skating with her and some friends, it was a lot of fun. Me and Lisa couldn't stop laughing I'm pretty sure its because we were delusional. Some guy tried speaking to me in Ukrainian and I just stared at him saying English? So i asked one of the boys who was with us what he was saying. Later the same guy came up asking us where we were from and I'm pretty sure that was the only English sentence he knew how to say. But hey it was eventful and we got a good laugh out of it. We start teaching tomorrow and I'm really nervous about it but hey it should be fun:) They are just kids they are easily entertained anyways:) So that was my day here in the Ukraine. Crazy world over here but its getting better:)
