Ukraine - The Cossacks

The Cossacks are romanticized in the Ukraine, perhaps in the same way that Americans romanticize the cowboys of the old west. Zaporizhia was one of the main centers of this activity, and we had a chance to meet a few of the old boys on our way through.







And here are some action shots.




It's so much fun we want to be Cossacks ourselves.

Drinking the vodka with the sword

And, some more crazy horseback riding
