    • Join the Russians in their religious activities and a whole new world will open for you (see also my page about Russia in general).
    A visit to one of the Russian Orthodox churches is a very special event full of mysticism. The iconostases of many churches are magnificent and the candlelights and (sometimes present) Gregorian singing give a mysterious atmosphere. Easter is by far the most attended religious day, then masses appear in and even around the church to listen to the traditional "Kristos Vaskris"!

    • Now popular around the whole of Russia, Shasliek (the Caucasus and now Russian variant of Barbecue) is something that most Russians cannot get enough of. There must be a pyromaniac in all males here (including myself - hahaha). In a huge variety of cans, drums, barbecueshaped things and more, wood is burned to sharred coal and above the hot sintles, (porc)meat is roasted on long pins. Also vegetables and other things are well-done, to end up in deliscious salads and stews.

     Merry Christmas! I wish to you and your family happiness, health and good luck in all at this X-mas! I sent the letter and a card to you in December. I don't know you received a card or not, I used "1000 cards".    		iandsmith Sun Sep 17, 2006 21:55 UTC
     Excellent stuff (would have rated your pages but my computer won't let me at the moment, I've got a block somewhere)
