Well folks. The next trip was unexpected but welcome. I am having the time of my life. Met the most wonderful woman on my travels who has invited me to go over and stay with her in the crimea. YUP…..the Crimea. Well always wanted to visit Sevastopol and Moscow so here goes. Finally got a visa to.

Flew to Moscow on Sunday night then after a 3 hour sit in Moscow airport flew on to Simferopol in the Crimea. Valentina picked me up in the airport and drove over the pass onto Partenit.

After stop after stop in the worst snow storm I have seen for a while we finally came out of the pass and headed out of the snow and into Partinet. A little town by the sea where the Red army comes to holiday. Ho Ho.
