This is a real life scene but it really looks like a model

Paul McCartney concert and Independence Square in Kiev Ukraine

The first couple of pictures are from the day before when the stage was being set up, lights testing, and sound testing.

This is an underground mall that is under Independence Square.

This whole building must belong to McDonald’s

Another gambling spot

Here we are at the concert getting totally drenched. What a bummer. The show started an hour late and the rain let up a bit but the damage had already been done. We should have brought an umbrella like everyone else.

Heading home on the subway

The train station in Lviv was really nice.

Internet!!! (I think)

Inside the train car

This was my train ticket which was hard to read.

This was my package of linens for my bunk. Each person received a package of sheets, a blanket and a comforter along with a pillow and case. Maximum comfort!!!

Arriving at the station in Kiev.
