Not much to report. We went to the full 2 hour church service today. The music is very good and I enjoy that alot. I wish we could understand some of the preaching here but we do not. It is still exciting to see the enthusiam of the people that are able to understand what is being said. If it was English being spoken instead of Russian, it could easily be a church somewhere in the midwest of the USA.
Here is a picture of Stacey with Sveta and Victor outside of some important looking building. On Saturday when we rode past, there were no less than 5 wedding parties out there getting pictures taken. They are standing beside a large cannon. We have no idea of the significance of the monument. Victor, who is very funny by the way, said that perhaps the cannon did not work so they left it there. We really enjoy his and Sveta's humor.
We have tickets for the Moscow circus on Saturday. That should be interesting.

And last but not least, Ms. Shawn wrote a special poem to add a little humor to your journey:
*********************************
When you're really, really bored, and there's nothing to do...
Just sit right down and take off your shoes....
Pull those socks off, now don't you fall.....
Roll them up real tight and form a nice little ball....
"Look out David!" Stacey's starting to grin....
Even in a game like "sock volleyball", your competitive wife wants to win!!!!! :)
***********************************
Enjoy this time together. It is a chance of a lifetime. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love and Blessings,
shawn neal
(and the Young CBS class)
