DP
On that Sunday after my birthday, we woke up and got ourselves ready to head to the vauxhaul. We had gotten a big breakfast under our belt (literally) and were looking forward to our Japanese treat.
I had never really thought of DP as being a cool or exciting place to visit, so I was pleasantly surprised when we got there and it looked so nice. We strolled down prospect Karla Marxa for several hours, taking pictures and trying to find this restaurant. Once that goal was achieved, we still had several hours to kill before the scheduled time and went to find the river.
They had a river park area and an island with a huge statue and a church on it, and I could easily see how in the spring and summer, this could be a great place to hang out.
By this point in time we were all starving and decided to go to the restaurant an hour earlier and await there for our remaining clustermate, who was coming in from another nearby city. By 3 we were all united again, along with the cluster couples sitemate. It was delicious food, albeit extremely expensive and we easily ran through the allotted $200 they had in vouchers to spend.
Afterwards myself and the 2 other girls had time before our various modes of transportation left, so we went to another PCVs apartment and hung out with her until 2 of us had to go.
It was very easily one of the most pleasing weekends I have had here getting together with other volunteers. Everything was relaxed and easy and made me decide to venture out on that side of the Dnipro more often.
