Frogger - Ukrainian Version...

If any of you are Seinfeld aficionados you will remember George Costanza's epic trek across a busy New York City Street with his beloved Frogger Video Arcade game.  Well, Vivian and I were visiting the missionaries in Vinnytsia last Friday.  It is a city about 200 kilometers southwest of Kyiv with a population of over 600,000.  More to come in a later blog posting about Vinnytsia.  Now back to Frogger.

While in Vinnytsia we observed the Ukrainian version of  Frogger that included cars, buses, trams and people navigating the busy traffic on the main street running through central part of the city.  It was something to behold.  It would take me too long to describe in words what it is like to navigate the busy streets either by foot, rail or auto/bus/taxi.  All I can say when crossing the street you need to throw caution to the wind, be bold in your efforts, move with all determination and never give an inch once you've committed yourself to cross that street!
