OKay you're right, I'll do that, need to minimize the files first, the photos are too big. Thanks for your reply, you're quite an awesome webmaster!!

They are good photos that bring back memories of these places. It looks like you had a good time. Are there any plans for future trips.

Hi Sidney, Yes I had a good time.... future trips? I don't know. We managed to get me a 6 month multiple entry visa and he wants me to go over in the summer but I don't know if I can. First of all, I used all my vacation days. That wouldn't matter, I would take unpaid vacation days, except for the fact that I'm quitting my job in a few months and going back to graduate school, moving from Texas to Ohio... so I really can't spend any money right now. And I can't move to Russia either, because I have to go to school and my Russian is so bad I am unemployable there. Wow, so this is life.

Summer is a more enjoyable time. More to do and see as well. Where there is a will there is a way. The more I went the more I wanted to go even more. The people and culture are amazing. Moscow is a geat place to visit but can be expensive as I'm sure you've learned.
There are english teaching jobs but you wouldn't be saving any money doing this. This may be one option but it sounds like you're committed for the near future.
