This week has been really very busy as a lot of things have accumulated after coming back from Vietnam. Classes, exams (almost every day) even the trip to Orel on Friday-Saturday. I examined there the whole day and was very impressed by the town and how peaceful and quiet it is compared to Moscow. The town is green and cosy. Kids are clever and nice, but some of them were wearing pioneer ties as Orel is a 'Red Communist Area' of Russia. I did not manage to see my dear Michael (Dima's dad) at Orel as I had only limited time there and got back as soon as I finished examining. Well, we saw a very good performance ('Poverty is not a Sin') by N. Ostrivsky at Maly Theater on Tuesday and enjoyed it very much.So it was a nice change during an extremely busy week. Love and hugs to all of you...

Hey there, Our stay in Golden Sand, Hoi An is coming to an end. Tomorrow we're flying to Hanoi. Yesterday we went for snorkeling on Cham island and went up to the jungle to the fishing village. I took some amazing pics there of old people and their pets. People there seem to be happy, though they lead very simple and hardworking life. There were 2 Americans in our boat. One woman was from SF! She was very loud and annoyed us. Everything else was OK. Hugs and love to you... http://youtu.be/IBUwI7VTPLQ http://youtu.be/Zz0iP1IgI5U

Hey, Here we are in Hoi An, Vietnam again!!! We arrived on April 30 to Danang and then to Hoi An There we stayed in Palm Garden Hotel for 2 days then moved to Golden Sand Hotel where we've already been. It's top hotel here in Hoi An area so we decided to go there one more time. It's really splendid with the longest in Vietnam swimming pool and very clear sea, unlike Ha Long and other places. We're having a really good time here as on May 10 we're leaving for Hanoi for Stanislaw's business. On May 9 we're going for snorkelling on Cham island near here with some corals under the water.Will take some pics there. Have a look at some pics of Hoi An and the place where we're staying. Hugs and love to all of you...
