Rain

My super nice boyfriend told me this blog was boring (meany!), so I decided that every other day I'm going to have a theme-of-the-day showcasing something weird or different about Ukraine.  I don't have one for today, so expect one in the next post.  Will that spice up this blog, Daniel?!  I'm only kidding, but I already do have a lot of ideas in mind for the theme-of-the-day so keep reading!
But anyway, it's been raining here all day so far.  I still have a bit of a headache from last night lol :/ too so I guess I don't mind staying in and watching movies on my laptop for now.  I might walk over to the supermarket later to see what they have.  First supermarket experience!  I've only been here 2 days and all I've done was go out to eat so I think it's time to take advantage of my huuuuuge kitchen.  Photo:

modern TV... not

Well anyway, here's a quick recap from yesterday.  3 main highlights: climbed Lviv City Hall Tower and got a panoramic bird's eye view of lviv.  That tower was pretty scary, though.  It's so old and I seriously thought I'd fall throught the tattered, wooden steps.  Here's a pic of me at the top as well as a pic of the view.  I made a video of the bells going off while at the top (also made me think I'd die).  I'll post it shortly.

Next I went to the Lvivske (львівське) brewery, or "Museum of Brewery."  The museum was very, very small but I learned about Lviv's local brewery and got a taste of the filtered and unfiltered beer.  Considering I know nothing about beer brewing even after visiting the museum, I have no idea what filtered or unfiltered means but they tasted the exact same.

And, at night I hit up my first club for some crazy people watching and a tiny bit of dancing.  Ukrainian party people are hilarious and wear the strangest things.  I drank my first Black Russian there (kinda good but very strong).  Came home around 4:30am and still have a headache.  In fact, I might go take a nap.  Peace!
