The weather has been perfect for three weeks. It is usually about sixty five to seventy degrees with a hot sun and a warm breeze. I think that the summer is somehow Russia's way of saying sorry for the winter. There are only about three or four hours of darkness every night which is cool, but makes it harder to sleep. Like I said, the summer is really the opposite of the winter here. During winter there are only about four hours of light every day. In summer, everything is green and full of life, especially at our second house in the country. It is somewhat of a farm. They have chickens and cows and a lake with a lot of fish. The country house is beautiful this time of year.
