What an Adventure!
It's great to be an American in Siberia on the 4th of July!
First of all, let me say that I'm really thrilled to be a part of Aaron and Nelle's world trip.... for a short while. I'll be tagging along for the first month; and so far, I have to report that they are receiving high marks in Exploring 101. Aaron has been conversing in German with our Russian bunkmate on the train from St. Petersburg to Yeketerinburg, and he's been a wiz at navigating us through the metro systems of both Moscow and St. Petersburg. Nelle has steadily been adding words to her Russian vocabulary, and can somehow manage to decipher the cyrillic alphabet. We always send her to ask someone for directions/info because her smile and some inventive hand signals usually will get the message across. It's been frustrating at times dealing with some unfriendly individuals, but we've had a lot of interesting situations..... and it's been fun.
Stay tuned.

Hi, Dad is spending the 4th of July with us in Northwood and I am printing out all of your posts. He's getting to see the picture gallery and hear all about your experiences.
Russia is really quite wonderful if you look at the overall experience. Getting to talk to the people is the only way to really enjoy the country. I know the train ride is long since I've traveled on it four different times. Each time we encounted new experiences.
Keep enjoying everything you see. Love,
Carol
