Culture differences

I'll talk about the offensive things first, of course playing got your nose is a really bad idea. It is most places. Another really offensive thing to do is to tap someone else's shoe with yours, they'll get mad at you. Also don't let other people see the bottom of your shoe. So watch out! These next ones aren't offensive as much as they are superstitions, drinking cold water is really weird, they think drinking cold stuff is bad for your health, and it's not just water too, it's juice as well, ( not sure about milk)) but we drink warm juice sometimes. Whistling isn't offensive but they think you're blowing your soul out of your body or something, so they'll just look at you funny and tell you to stop. Also, it is bad luck to do anything between a doorway so be carefull when you offer your hand.

And that's about all I know.

Enjoy this picture of this lake we stopped at on our drive to sumy.

The metal park

We went to this metal park were there is these little metal statues, here are some pictures 

The mission home.

We got on a  overnight train on I think Tuesday night, we woke up on Wednesday and as so as we got off our train there was president Lockhead ready for us, we went to the mission home which is one of the nicest places ever. President and sister Lockhead are really nice and spoil us. That morning we had a nice breakfast and grandpa and pres. Lockhead got in a really deep doctrinal discussion which was basically general conference at the breakfast table.

I couldn't believe how much room was In my room.

The grocery store, temple and military museum.

Side note: it has been difficult to fun Internet acces, I will bring you up to day though.

We went to the grocery on Monday evening, we bought a bunch of stuff, and there was a miscommunication so we thought it was 600 grieven and we did not have that much, so we pranced around trying to talk to someone we figured that the total of our stuff was about 75 to 80 dollars, needless to say it was only  76 grieven or something, which we could easily pay. So it was embarrassing as I stood in front of the cashier while she was just getting ticked off, moving on!

We went to the temple which was a good experience this girl tried to talk to me and it was embarrassing because I couldn't answer her questions, although we established that I was from Utah and her name was Olga. I got in two sessions  in the time that we were there. 

( looks like the timp temple doesn't it?)

We went to this military museum which Mitch went ecstatic In it.

My trip to Ukraine part one!

Yup, I am in Europe right now, I left Saturday evening to my grandparents house, spent the night, woke up the next morning to go to the airport. My first flight was from slc to Atlanta, it was 3 hours and 7 minutes, then we had a one hour difference between our next flight which was to Paris, this was the long one, the first thing I noticed was that this plane didn't have tv's on each seat. Which meant you couldn't control what you watch, so I watched this movie called "mud" and "chasing mavericks" there was another movie playing but I didn't watch it. The flight was seven hours and 35 minutes, we got to Paris at 5:35 am, which was one of the weirdest things ever because it felt like the morning because it was even though my body clock was winding down. We had two hours this time. The next plane was with air France and the seats were really squished and crowded and it sucked, at least it wasn't the 7 hour flight.

Airplanes. Airplanes are really cool because when you get on you feel like you're getting on a Disneyland ride. And then you go like 600 miles an hour.

Anyways, now I am sitting in my hotel room which I will be In for one day, it will have been about 30 hours without a actual nights rest. By the way did you guys know that the earphone jack on planes are on your seat handle in most cases? It took us about an hour and a half to find out.

I think this is the slc airport. So yeah, recap. I'll try to keep up.

Me in my bed!
