Conference in Kiev

All the Humanitarian Couples from East Europe Area met in Kiev for our annual conference.  We stayed in a wonderful hotel, saw lots of sights, had an inspiring conference and ate great food - but - the highlight was going to the temple!!!

We really enjoyed visiting with the other couples - it reminds us that we're not alone and that others are having lots of similar experiences as us.
The city of Kiev is beautiful.  There are lots of water ways and bridges - lots of green.

We found this cute fountain in a park that was designed by Gaudi - we loved his work in Spain

 Beautiful buildings and churches throughout the city.

The food served in the hotel looked amazing - they were all about the presentation.  We had ordered before we came and E. Reese was really looking forward to the chocolate cake.  Here's what came:
 YUCK!!! It tasted terrible - it was not chocolate - he was so disappointed! (but it looked cool!)
 Can't go wrong with ice cream!
Breakfast fruit - didn't even know what some of them were.
This was my favorite shot - loved the building through the flowers!
We really had a great time as we connected with other couples and learned what was needed to be done.

  1. Wonderful picture, you guys! I'm so proud of you! What a beautiful city. What beautifully presented food...such a bummer about the chocolate cake-I would have guessed that it would have been a safe order.
