<p>In September 2009 we visited our youngest, who was serving two-plus years in the Peace Corps in Ukraine, living in a small village on the Crimean peninsula, an hour&#8217;s bus ride from the Crimean capital, Simferopol. We had a couple days  of sight-seeing with him, after arriving in Kiev/Kyiv, and then took a long train ride to Simferopol followed by a taxi ride to his village. During our ten days with him, we visited in the village and walked in the vicinity, were &#8220;show and tell&#8221; for a day at the school where he was working, and spent days tripping to Simferopol, to Yalta, to Sevastopol and elsewhere via trolleybus. One day, we visited <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bakhchisaray_Palace">Bakhchisaray Palace</a>, where this photo was taken.</p>
