Re: [Cz-L] News from Kyivpost

To all:
Many things not as stated.
Says the Kyivpost:
If you’ve been in Ukraine long enough, you probably have noticed the
excessive number of gray buildings, and I don’t blame you if you hate them.

But that doesn’t hold true for Chernivtsi – just take a look at the main
square of the city, where colors range from salmon pink to bright blue.

Residents say that they kept the original color of the buildings as they are
proud of their city’s quirky appearance.

To this I must say:
In old Czernowitz there were no pink buildings or cathedrals.
  Or blue Temple-cinemas.
   We liked it the old way...
