Pictures From Picking Mushrooms in the Woods

In October, I went with Roma and his parents to the village to gather wild mushrooms. We went to Roma's grandparent's house and then climbed aboard his grandfather's horse drawn carriage. Actually, carriage makes it sound too fancy. It's really more of a wagon. Regardless, grandpa took us far out into the woods. We spent the day gathering. The first picture is from the wagon. The second is a bunch of mushrooms. The third is me with Roma's mom, Nadia. And the last picture is just me and my bouquet of mushrooms. It was a great day.

Pictures From My October Trip to Uman

Back in October, Roma and I took a trip to the city of Uman to visit Sophiavsky Park. As you may recall, we unwittingly arrived in Uman on the "Day of the City." Both the city, and the famous park, were packed with people. There were no rooms available at any of the hotels in Uman so Roma and I saw the sites quickly and then caught a bus back to Bar. It was a long day. Note Roma carrying my black bag teaming with apples...
