HIGHLIGHTS (not the magazine)

1) I dyed my hair blonde...it came out more of a strawberry blonde, not quite what I expected, but I'm diggin it.

2) Today I walked around in a short-sleeved shirt, jeans, and chacos. It seems like forever since I've been able to do that. BEAUTIFUL day!

3) I purchased some not-needed but wanted jewelry at the souvenir/art bazaar and refrained from spending too much for a painting I also do not need.

4) I took some fun pictures while walking all over the center of Lviv...as much as my hip would allow. Would've walked more.

5) I spoke Ukrainglish with a guy at the souvenir/art bazaar...it's fun to be able to speak a different language.

6) Eleven brides walked around with their wedding party taking pictures in front of statues, churches, fountains, and whatever else Lviv-ish they came across. Fun to watch them awkwardly yet joyfully meander through the streets among the crowds of people trying to get that perfect shot.
