Siberia, Russian Federation Khabarovsk section 5 and some 'of Russian

Siberia, Russian Federation Khabarovsk section 5 and some 'of Russian In continuation of this series, we think of San Diego to Chita, Siberia as a professor at the Technical University Chita State. We take the story outside the airport in Khabarovsk, Russia. Khabarovsk Khabarovsk is an amazing city. Museums with works by Picasso, Rembrandt and other masters. A vibrant downtown with cafes, a lively music scene and architectural triumphs. Then again, maybe not. We were more interested in finding a hotel with hot water and never in the city. Outside the airport, we were a little 'seemed flummoxed by the fact no taxis. We have leaed that almost all Russians, with a car is also a taxi for hire. After 5 minutes egging each other, Grae made taxi arrangements and we did. Apparently taking disheveled appearance after 3 days of traveling, our driver in front of the Intourist Hotel. We promptly accepted. During communism, Intourist hotels were set up for the exclusive use by foreigners. We were very pleasant and, most importantly, had showers with ample hot water. You can use it on again humanity with one of the best showers of my life, it was time to brush on my Russian skills. I am a big fan of ice hockey. During the eighties and nineties, many of the best players were Russians. In interviews, almost always talked about leaing English through television. If it worked for them, would be for me. Not exactly. As Grae shower, I reversed the eight channels. Sitcoms a non-starter, but I found a news channel. I see the images. So what are the images. I heard the words spoken by the reporter. I have absolutely no idea of what words what images. Well,? S back. What words they use over and over? Damn, I am talking so fast? After 30 minutes I leaed nothing, nada, zippo. My respect for Russians playing in the NHL has never been higher. You could also sleep. Yes, the day of the trip was finally done. My earlier forecast of a 2-day trip was out of the window. However, we were in Russia, so long as you could? Pull out a map and take a look at the ground. E 'twice as large as the United States - continue? When Stairs Attack?
