back in the ussr

you don't know how lucky you are.

welcome to russia. excellent customer service from the guy in customs. by way of indicating that we were maybe being over zealous in declaring all our money and malaria tablets, he decided the best way was to throw our passports on the floor and look away disgusted. the lonely planet - and woe betide anyone that doesn't do what the lonely planet says should happen - said we needed our declaration stamped. the customs guy wasn't having any of that. only after some persuasion did we procure the necessary stamps.

anyway, expect stereotypical photos of lada cars, grey skies, dancing bears and furry hats shortly. we have to get out there and take them.

Sounds like you're off to a roaring start! Just think - the weather is likely to be as chilly as the guard's attitude. Bring on the dancing bears.

love,

The pumpkin pie was excellent (your Mom made it)ans, so far, I haven't heard of anyone coming down with salmonella poisoning from the turkey so I guess it was a success!
