Boat Tour with our American Friends

On Thursday, July 31 Valentyna, Sasha, Oksana, Nastya, Sophia, Dima and their American friends Allen, Susan, Megan, Emily and Julia went for an evening walk. We took a boat tour of our Ternopil lake. It was a very joyful time having fellowship with our guests. Sasha was enjoying the view of the lake; Dima showed Allen the main attractions of Ternopil; Susan, Emily, Oksana, Sophia, Nastya and Valentyna were silently observing the picturesque surroundings. The weather was very sunny and that reminded Allen of the hot days in Abilene. After the lake tour we took a walk in the park ‘Topilche’. Everyone liked talking about God. Our American friends enjoyed the fresh air and the smell of flowers. Then we visited our local zoo where we saw deer, horses, ostriches and peacocks. The best part was at the end, when we went on our big double swings, called ‘canoes’. Everyone was laughing… Dima was swinging with Sasha, Sophia with Megan, Emily with Oksana, and I cannot recall who Nastya was swinging with… It was a fun time!!! Our guests enjoyed it also, we all became good friends. (Contributed by Dima Levenets)
