mini post

No long post today in the interest of sleep, but here are some more photos. Today we saw Петроравловская Крепость Fortress of Peter and Paul, built in 1703 with a gigantic golden spire and intricate detail. Ariel and I went to a sushi bar in the afternoon with Ася Asya and her friend whose name turned out to be Арсен Arsein. I think they are dating. I understood a little bit more of what was said, but really not much at all. It seems impossible that I will ever learn the language, but I am inspired by the success of others. Anyway, it's really nice of them to put up with us and I think it is very helpful to listen to their chatter.

There are so many sushi bars here and they are very cheap!

Class continues to be review. I would complain (in my head) but I don't believe I have a right to until I stop making mistakes. And I had much more success today at Русский стол Russian table, with several conversations complete with mutually understood meaning! Or so I think.
