Good day everyone! Добрый День Все! We will randomly put in pictures of signs that stand out to us. This one in particular...Can anyone guess what is happening at this location? But at least it is in English, since I (Wendy) can't read the Russian letters.
On to our blog post of the day, the buildings we observe around the city.
The following picture is an older building, wood and very run down and old. Many of these buildings are in such bad state they are not in use, other than homeless people.
Next up: The common square brick building. Apartments. Complexes of big brick buildings.
And now we have a modern building, and this one was right next to the above brick building.
Now, can anyone guess what the next building is? It is a lovely building, but not exactly what you would think.
Below is another lovely wooden home, and as we were taking the picture an old man walked by and told us the building would be destroyed soon. I think it is a terrible shame to destroy some of these old wooden buildings. I think they are all very old and have much historical value.
This house in particular had a lot of fancy wood work on it, here is a close up.
We are moving into our apartment tomorrow. We will then have to use the bus system to get to work everyday. We will be about 4.5 miles from the school. Should be a fun day for me! I finally get to unpack our bags! And go grocery shopping!
Hi Wendy! I'm so glad you have this blog so we can keep up with your life. (This is Brenna, Chad's wife from Juneau by the way!) Russia looks amazing and I can't wait to keep reading what you have to write.
ReplyDeleteI have my own little blog as well but it's more just for the sake of being silly... check it out if you want!
