Summer approaches

Work is the greatest thing in the world, so we should always save some of it for tomorrow.

 - Don Herold

The weather is fantastic now! It's time to avoid work at all costs and get outside instead!

Time to wear sandals and eat ice cream in the grass

Time to ride the cable carts between Sarzhin Yar and Gorky Park

Time to learn how to open bottles using only the metal walls of a cable cart

Time for thunderstorms

Time for families to visit the "extreme" park together

Also... work can be postponed a little longer by hopping on a marshrutka and venturing out to a great b-day party in поселок жуковского, or жуки (Bugs) as it's called by the residents.

Свято-Николаевский храм, or St. Nicholas church

It's a 6 uah ride here by marshrutka, 40 uah by taxi

Happy Birthday to the birthday boy!!

Wherever you are, I hope you're enjoying June as well : )
