07 Nov Day 13 – You are Dumplings and Daisies, at Familiya Restaurant in Zhytomyr, Ukraine

Day 13 of a 26 day, 11 flight and 4 country adventure, capturing grace in France, Ukraine, Russia and Spain.

Other than spending time with our new friends at Last Bell ministries, mine and Carissa’s favorite memory during this part of our trip was Familiya restaurant in Zhytomyr. Everyone who is served is treated like family as they celebrate local dishes that are a part of the Zhytomyr culture.

We loved working through the language barrier with our waiters here, the moment we most remember was when our very kind waitress attempted to translate something over google translator and it came out “you are dumplings and daisies”…. A new name that has stuck for Carissa Mosley for the duration of our trip.

[Last month, my daughter Carissa and I set off on a 26 day, 11 flight and 4 country adventure, Capturing Grace with our camera’s as we journeyed through France, Ukraine, Russia and Spain. I am now back at home in the US, posting about the experience of those  twenty six days from my journal]
