laundry

So it's starting to get a little colder outside now.  I was walking down the street the other day and I saw a thermometer on the side of a building.  It said 12 Celsius which is like 50 F.  It felt much colder than that though, the wind didn't help.  The other day I was talking to Viktor about the weather and he was saying that winter's in Chernivtsi are different every year.  However, what he did tell me was that weather forecasters in the country are expecting what's called a 100 year winter.  That mean's that they are expecting record cold temps and a lot of snow.  I hope that doesn't put a damper on the people who are thinking of visiting me.

So the city seems to be celebrating it's anniversary right now.  I think that it's 602 or 603, but it doesn't matter.  All that you have to know is that it's really really old.
Anyway, my thing is entitled laundry because on saturday I did my first load of laundry in Ukraine. It was interesting.  By interesting i mean that it took 2 and a half hours to do on load, and there is no dryer.  Right now all of my underwear is hanging around my room drying.  Thank God I have so much furniture and no roommate!
