One time she went to the competition in our friends' car and came home with us. We were stopped and she was taken into another room to be interviewed! And they made her dance! Fortunately, she was twelve or so at that time, and it didn't frighten her - only amuse her.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12623179886908222942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7457724869443903686.post-28241208174813775412008-12-04T10:48:00.000-08:002008-12-04T10:48:00.000-08:00Ha ha!

We bought two movies for 200 rubles each and thought we were getting the real things! Nope!!! We know now what to look for though! It's kinda funny when you here the background from the movie theatre in the pirated movies. We chunked the movies and we will buy the real deal next time.The Herdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04472507772885670488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7457724869443903686.post-32547377524322380372008-12-02T20:19:00.000-08:002008-12-02T20:19:00.000-08:00Klassno!

Especially if I've only used a few dishes. It's faster than waiting for the dishwasher to fill up.<BR/><BR/>2) My little brothers used to get checked VERY carefully when we went in and out of Russia. Just to make sure we weren't stealing them!<BR/><BR/>3) Regarding John's amazement about Russian DVD's: If they're cheap and out on DVD before the rest of the world, they're probably pirated. ;)Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15283395756742923658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7457724869443903686.post-79295297674724669022008-12-02T10:33:00.000-08:002008-12-02T10:33:00.000-08:00Karen,I'm staying in Bonn with a friend who ha...Karen,<BR/>I'm staying in Bonn with a friend who has some Christian friends in St. Petersburg. The names of the St. Petersburgers are Adrian & Kim Stead. If I can find an address or email, I'll send it to you. They were very involved with the American Protestant Church in Bonn. Maybe you can hook up with them.<BR/><BR/>Until then, <I><B>enjoy your little slice of heaven!!!</B></I> We're proud of you all.
