Dacha in the summertime

This past weekend was a holiday here, Russia Day, so we were invited to our friends dacha with a few other couples as well.  Read here and here about going to a dacha before. We met another family at the train station in the morning, rode the train about an hour to the dacha and then the family who invited us picked us up at the station. We had a fun day of eating, talking, sweating it out in the banya (even the girls did for a little bit!), taking a walk, and playing in the grass. We weren’t sure if we wanted to go at first because we have a lot of work that needs to be done before we leave here, but it was a very nice and relaxing time.

Won’t you be my neighbor?

For those of you who grew up with Mr. Rogers, this video is for you. I just came across this video and thought you should see it, I grew up watching Mr. Rogers and believe he was a great man who made a positive impact on million’s of kid’s lives. He is greatly missed!
