Ukraine!

We have arrived at Kovel in Ukraine. We had an easy border crossing and caused quite a stir by arriving on a tandem! We were sent to the front of the queue where a man told us he had been waiting three and a half hours in his car so we suggested that maybe next time he should ride a bicycle for a quicker border crossing. The Ukrainian roads are very bumpy. When we got to Kovel we had absolutely no idea where we had to go but were greeted by a couple who spoke English, it turned out Dr P from The Revival Centre in Chernihiv had sent them to meet us and I guess the tandem stands out, how wonderful. The girl studied English at University but this is the first time she had ever spoken to English people.
