Waiting to travel

So today we spent the day at the flat. All day long we could hear music and speeches coming from the Square. Zhenia said it is a holiday. Every January 22nd is "Ukrainian Unity Day" or something like that. Hundreds of people were in the square. We decided not to join them. We could hear everything quite well from the flat, and there seemed no need to be in the crowd.

Of course we could not understand the speeches or the song lyrics. Most of the music was folk or pop style. We did recognize the Carol of the Bells, though. All in all, quite an enjoyable day.
