Happy Birthday Ukraine!
Today marks the 18th anniversary of Ukraine's independence. Celebrations included a military parade down Kyiv's Khreschatik Street and the placement of a huge flower clock in Independence Square. The clock is huge, with a 5 meter-long minute hand and a 3 meter-long hour hand. Its diameter is 19.5 meters, the largest in the world. Yes, the clock does display the actual time.Поздравляю!
