On Saturday we rode on the funicular. I asked Darryl what to say about it. He said, “It was fun…icular!” It is a cable car that goes up a hill – its a very short ride but fun and quite a touristy thing I hear. Here are Darryl and Kathryn in front of the entrance. It says “Funicular” in Ukrainian. You can tell because it has an “i”. Russian doesn’t have an “i”, it has a backwards “n” instead.
Here we are inside. When we got to the top we saw a woman that was feeding birds out of her hand, which was really cool.
We weren’t exactly sure where the funicular would end up. We found ourselves in a large park, very close to the apartment we stayed in for 2 weeks last September when we first arrived. Kathryn had a great time playing at the park – she kept saying things like, “This is a great park, Dad!”
Here is a view from the park. We live to the left, which is north, beyond where you can see in the picture.
