Kiev, Independence Square, Ukraine - 24th August 2012

By: Katusha

Hi, Mommy! Sorry for delaying, my host was busy a little - her studies at English school began. But now here I am! And I want to show you what we did on 24th August.

In the morning we went to the centre of city by the underground.

When we arrived, we got to one of the oldest movie theatre in Kiev.

We met very nice Book store. It was an exhibition of children art studio here. All exhibits were marvelous. We took a photo of some of them.

Then we got to main street of Kiev - Kreschatik. There were many people here. It was a big festival, because August 24 is an Independence Day of Ukraine - national holiday.

Then we came back to the Independence Square and went down to the underground to go home.

Bye-bye,
your Qah!
