Chekhov

I thought I'd share some photos that Brian has shared with me of Chekhov. Figured this might help some of you visualize what his life is like over there right now.

I'm not that tech savvy and it's too late at night for me to fix the order that these pictures appear in. But I'll add some descriptions so hopefully you'll get the idea...

This is the apartment building that Brian will be moving into Tuesday.

Sidewalk looking into town from the apartment complex.

Yes! They do carry Pampers in Chekhov, thank goodness. I was not about to go over there without an ample supply of available diapers.

My favorite photo Brian has sent me so far...the meat counter. Eww...gross. Can't say they're big on presentation at this grocery store. This photo has inspired me to become a vegetarian. HA! Fat chance.

The mall. It's called the Carnival. That must be how they spell "carnival" in Russian.

Well, we know from this photo Brian won't starve.

Julius Mienel coffee, yeah, caffeine!

Photo of Brian's hotel room. I must say he's not very neat when living on his own. Tsk, tsk.

Photo of the exterior of the apartment building Brian will be moving into. Will also be home for me and Emily in about another 6 weeks.
