They are both together the church and the smokestack... and I felt some harmony looking at them that morning.

Russia. Fairy Tale of Winter!

31 December: Ded Moroz in Metro!

As all you know in Russia we don't have Santa Clause who maybe brings gifts to your kids at the Christmas. In Russia we have Grandfather Frost who puts gifts for our kids under Fir Trees. You can read more about our Russian New Year traditions here (Svet Sunday: New Year and Christmas in Russia!). But today I want you to show some pictures of Grandfather Frost (Ded Moroz) whom we met at metro at 31 of December.

It looks like he is going to tell "S Novym Godom!" (Happy New Year) to kids who celebrate New Year Ave in a hiking trip with their parents.

New Years Tree in Vladimir, Russia!

Took this picture while fighting a huge snowstorm.

The tree was a beacon of goodwill to us.

Vladimir is about 179 km from Moscow.

Many times in Moscow you have a Babushka out in the work force shoveling snow. Can anyone say, very tough ladies? This particular day it was -25 degrees below zero Centigrade!
