What you are missing in Calgary!

Today, Joey finally arrived in Lutsk on the overnight train from Kyiv. That train ride alone is an amazing adventure, but I'm sure there have been many this week, as Joey...
- participated in YMAP Camp at Camp Chief Hector last weekend
- flew to Toronto on Monday for the final pack-up and farewells with his family
- left Toronto on Wednesday, flying through Frankfurt, to arrive in Kyiv on Thursday
- had a day and a half in Kyiv, staying one night at the famous Hotel Ukraine, and meeting with some folks from the YMCA Ukraine National office.

Marta met him at the train station this morning, they had breakfast together at her house, and the day was full of plans to see an apartment, attend a TenSing practice, play floorball (like floor hockey), and have a "Canada Party" with our friends from YMCA Volyn!

Joey, I'm sure your time here in Calgary seems like a distant memory. After all the cold and dreary cloud cover you experienced here, we had a few days of beautiful sunshine and plus temperatures this week.

This morning, however, we awoke to 10cm of snow, and it is still falling! Enjoy spring in Volyn...but don't forget about us here.

You made many good friends during your training here, and we'll be excited to read your updates on this blog. This photo is a picture from my back window. And now you are our window to our friends in Ukraine.
