Odessa and Africians






This building is an illusion,it actually has a back to it. If you move a foot to the left you can see the rest of the apartment building.













When ever we stopped at a train station which happened all the time and you go on the train, these woman would come and try to sell you preserves, bread, fruit, vegetables. The only scary time I had on the train was when a man banged on our door and we opened it and he came in speaking Ukranian and holding a package and wanted to throw it in an upper compartment in our Koupa (room), of course we didn't understand so he just threw it up there and left. He said it was his coat. I wondered about it all night because they had warned us that sometimes people con'd you and you get in trouble with the law. It wasn't in the middle of the night that I had to use the restroom and saw that he was the conductor.
That's another experience going to the restroom. It is locked when they are at a station and opens up when you're moving because it just opens up on the tracks.




This is at Home Evening in our living room with the Africians that are members from our Branch. They are from Lagos, Nigeria and I told them that we met a real nice couple at the MTC, the Krupps, and to look them up when they go back home. They are going to the University here in Lviv.
