Today we had about +2°, and the snow is melting. There is still some left, but there is a lot of dirty water in the streets and slippery ice. I was swimming with the girls again. Happily they don't mind the weather. It's only me worrying how they might look like if they fell down on the slippery ice into the grey water....

There is lots of snow somewhere in Volgograd and other places... but not here yet. Hope to have a white Christmas, less than 2 weeks left.

On the blip you can see Nina and lots of people in the center of Saint Petersburg not far from one of our Railway stations, the Moskovsky Railway Station. As the name says the trains from here go in Moscow direction, but not only to Moscow, but also to Siberia (East) or to the Crimea (South). Our swimming pool is right beside the railway, so we are around the railway station almost every week.
