Today was the last day of work at the worksite. Well, it ended up being 1/2 day. Stan called it "done!" and we ate lunch. The work was again sifting dirt to sort the rocks from the sand. I could tell everyone was wearing down a bit. But they (actually Volodya, Vova's father) decided that what we had done was good. If we had not done it, they would have had to hire someone instead. So us moving bricks and sifting dirt turned out to be a great project for us.
In the afternoon, a few of us went to town (Uzhgorod) to do some last-minute souvenir shopping. The market we visited was quite interesting.
Tomorrow we head for Budapest. We start earlier than usual because there is another team coming from Oklahoma and the bus that is taking us there is picking them up. So the bud drivers need to be at the airport to pick up the other team. But that's okay, because we'll be in Budapest earlier to see some sites before the end of the day.
There is an internet cafe just around the corner from our hotel so hopefully someone will be able to pop in there and add to this blog that we arrived there okay. We'll continue to blog while in Budapest.
Thanks for your attention to this blog while we've been in Ukraine. Comments are always welcome and appreciated!
