Due to another subzero blizzard, our outdoor activities this weekend are limited. Yesterday a few of us braved the weather and the local bus system and saw part of the city. By the way, Russians don't mind driving crazily in the snow, even if they are driving a bus, They also apparently don't mind parking all over sidewalks and in haphazard fashion. Anyway, today we aren't going outside until our banya trip so I'm lazing around reading. I just found out that I have a certain number of megabits or something to use up before the end of January or I lose them. I don't really understand how it works but I guess it means I'll post more pictures. Enjoy!
Outside an Orthodox Church we attended. Note the classic babushka with cane.
Swan Lake!
Eating ice cream outside in -5F. With David and Laura.
Mullet beginnings, being pointed out by Riley. Note: mullets are so common here that there is no Russian word for them. (I've been asking all of the Russian students I meet. Several of them have had the cut themselves. They claim it was made popular by a Russian rock artist.)
Below: milking a goat statue in Nizhni. I just had to.
