Natasha, dear, I have an impression that you and you guest enjoyed your meeting very much! It’s really wonderful! Sometimes life gives us such interesting and unexpected meetings. It’s like a gift. And today I have received a gift from My Darling: it’s a new beautiful camera. Autumn has just shown its first signs here, and tomorrow (if there is no rain) I am going to take my new camera and later will show you a beautiful autumn here, if you don’t mind.

Alina, it was so pleasant to see your family! I join Natasha’s wishes that you won’t feel Russian frost as you and your family will be warmed by the hearts of your nearest and dearest. I’d like to say some words about my husband, the way he takes Russian and Siberian frost. He came to Russia in December of 2005 (at that time my future husband). I met him the airport as my plane had landed a half an hour before (We both came from London but by different flights, and I was with our delegation as an interpreter). So I met him, it was early morning and the temperature was -32C. And then he lived in Siberia all the winter (for 3 months), and that was the coldest winter in Siberia for the last 20 years. Sometimes the temperature was -45C. At first My Darling appeared in the streets without a hat or cap, and people looked at him surprisingly ; then he thought that his English boots were good for Siberian winter … We bought everything for him. And in spite of the temperature -45C he loves Siberian winter very much! He is proud that he was in Siberia at that time. Now he likes to tell his friends in the club about it, but they don’t believe! He asked me to confirm it, I do, but the expression of doubt is still on their faces. So when next the possibility appears he has asked some of his friends to come to us for a visit the next time we spend the winter in Siberia.
Alina, you mentioned in your last message that you visited a church. What church was it?
