Privyet Kremenchuk

Well, I made it to Kremenchuk without any issues on Wednesday of this week. It was a four and a half hour train ride and though I'm sure there were interesting things to see on the way down, my seat did not allow me a view of...well...anything! So I read and people watched--they also had movies going the whole time we were traveling, but they didn't seem that interesting, so I didn't watch them. I arrived a little before 9:00 and was super tired (it's amazing how exhausted you get sitting and doing nothing).

Today I had both a tour of the Bible college and the city of Kremenchuk. It is much smaller here than in Kiev, about 25,000 people live here. However, from what I saw today, I think that I will enjoy being here. I am staying with the woman who will be mentoring me for my internship requirements and I will probably be with her for about two weeks while I acclimate to living here. After that, I'll probably be living somewhere else for the last 6 weeks or so. This city still has their hot water shut off, so we are hoping that it is turned back on again really soon. Doing dishes and taking showers is a little interesting without hot, running water.

I'm posting a few photos, but these are still all from Kiev. I'll have some from Kremenchuk soon.
