First Days at Olia's

Image
We arrived late in the evening after a 13+1 hour flight from Moscow. Now, that we've stayed here for almost 3 days, I can say that I love it. It's in a nice and well groomed neighborhood of Sacramento called Arden Park. So it's very green and quite centrally located area, just 15-20 min drive from the center. The restaurant was opened a week ago, but there were many people when we were there. Yana seems to be happy here and she's a 'sunlight' girl. The pool is big and it would be nice to swim there in summer. Love and hugs to all my nearest:)

Sasha Smirnov's Club "Golden Knight' of Martial Arts

Image
Hey there, Stasik, my grandson sent me a link to the YouTube video about his father's Sasha Smirnov's role in the Club "Golden Knight' of Martial Arts in New Beliyaevo, Moscow. Sasha has become a great God Believer. Have a look at the video, Sasha appears not at the very beginning.I am very proud of him!! The video is devoted to 40 Martyrs of Sevastiysky, but overall it is about the Club. Love and hugs to you..
