It's always fun to eat on the plane, chicken or beef. Our flight was an hour late taking off, but we connected in Warsaw with no problems. We were welcomed at the Kiev airport by a super packed bus, that took us from the plane to a passport check point. Simply presenting our passports, with no questions asked, got our passports stamped. There was just a short walk out to the baggage claim area. Then we were given an option (like in Alice in Wonderland) red or green path. Green- no customs, red- customs, your choice. So we took the green path. We booked an apartment in Kiev through kievapts.com, and only communicated by a few e-mails, so we were pleasantly relieved when we walked out to a driver holding our name. He took us to the apartment which was about a half hour from the airport.
It was the apartment we booked and exactly as the sites pictures showed. We were tired and despite the effort not to, took a nap. Got up around 9:30pm (3:30 EST) and went exploring. After not being able to find anything to eat, it being late and our unfamiliarity with the area, we withdrew only 100 hrivnas (12 dollars US) because we weren't sure of the exchange rate yet.
Then finally we relaxed at a 24 hr coffee shop, were we shared a napoleon, an americano, and a coke.
