Kyiv Day Fireworks

I don't know how Cheryl and I figured out that there would be fireworks for the Kyiv Day festivities but we did.  We asked the hotel staff to confirm and they said yes they'd be on about 10:00 p.m. so we asked if we could go up to the 15th floor restaurant and watch from there and they said yes we could.


So Cheryl told Kailash and I told Paul and so up we went about 9:45 p.m. along with Satish.  Cheryl and I aren't comfortable with just showing up and using the restaurant so we each purchased a beverage while we waited for the show.  It got to 10:00 p.m. and no fireworks, 10:15 same, 10:30 still nothing had started.

The guys were about to leave and head back to the rooms when the display started.  We all went out on the balcony and watched the spectacle, it was very nice and you could hear the cheering from Independence Square.  The fireworks actually lit up the statue and you could see just how close we are to the City Center. Cheryl was able to capture some of the fireworks and I know everyone has seen a fireworks show before, but you've never seen one from Kyiv.



Enjoy!
