Weekend in Lviv

We had a great weekend, enjoying many things Lviv has to offer. On Saturday, we went to a Book Fair that is a 3-day event and included multiple publishers and thousands of visitors. It was quite an event! You can see a quick video of it below. Nika was able to buy New Testament in the Ukrainian language.

On Sunday, we greatly enjoyed the ballet, "Swan Lake", at Lviv's Opera House (enjoy the pictures below). The performance was breathtaking as was the Opera House itself. We will be going back for more. We are planning to see an opera there this Thursday. Lviv has a very active cultural life, and the Opera House offers multiple performances each month.

After the ballet, we enjoyed some delicious cake at a cafe called "Veronika." It was quite a treat! And in the late afternoon we attended an English-speaking church service held in a beautiful church (pictures to come later). It was a restful refreshing weekend.
