After Baikal I spent two weeks in Vladivostok, my home during the 2006-07 school year. It was so much fun to see everyone and to once again walk the streets of this incomprehensable city at the ends of the earth.
Things I missed about Vlad: friends!
Sunsets
The views (with and without pollution)
The busses
My walk to school
and ice swimming!
Vladivostok's harbor
The frozen ocean
Icefishing
Refrozen fishing holes
We spent one day at the dacha! (country cottage)
(its an icycle)
One of the better dacha toilets I've seen
We took a walk across the channel
And found an old Soviet cemetary
Another day we went hiking along the cliffs by the sea
Stray puppies
The view behind us
A neigborhood church we visited
The sunset on my birthday
City lights, one of my favorite things about Vlad.
We also walked out to a lighthouse (the little tiny collumn)
Sunest on my last day in Vlad.
ps - I'm losing my grasp on spelling. Not that I ever really had a grasp on it. :)
Dear Brooke! Saw your update on facebook and realized I hadn't been following your blog. Ack. But now I'm caught up. Beautiful pictures and peaceful, spare writing. How much longer are you in Russia?
