I just returned from a trip to Russia. The Mr. and I accompanied Sons 1A and 1B to the areas where they had previously served church missions. It was a wonderful 18 days filled with new experiences - the people, the language, the cuisine, and the culture were all amazing!
I took tons of pictures..... and then accidentally DELETED THEM ALL from my camera! Ugh!!!
Although I will try to retrieve them, there are a few images that will be forever etched in my mind -- even without my camera. You know, the things that seemed the most different from my little corner of the world. So, with a little help from google, here they are in no particular order:
Number One
EVERYONE seemed to be talking on the phones. All. the. time.
Number Two
The scenery was absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
Number Three
If I had a ruble for every time I twisted my ankle.....
Number Four
With the sidewalks noted above, it's a wonder there weren't more women wearing casts.
Number Five
My throat definitely noticed the difference.
Number Six
How was it that so many people could accidentally get super-glued together?
The chance to explore a few cities in Russia was an experience I'll never forget. I loved it! We did, however, do more walking than I've done in my life! I don't think my feet will ever forget either.

That's SO AWESOME you got to go to Russia with your boys! I remember when we ate at Chuck a Rama the day before they left on their missions. :)
Thomas and I agree that the foot picture is creepy. Like when Voldemort is on the back of that guy's turbaned head.
