Russia through the eyes of the Swiss (part 2)

• Russia through the eyes of the Swiss (part 2)

When traveling on the Trans-Siberian Railway, on each platform to sell sandwiches, plush toys, jewelry, and even chandeliers. What the hell are selling chandeliers apron ?! Are they here someone buys?

I spent hours just looking out the window. Infinitely long forest, rarely interrupted cities.

Transsiberian punctual scared me late, but it was not.

Ekaterinburg.

We met Olga and Stas.

Treated thin home-cooked stuffed pasta - one rammed into potatoes, cabbage another.

Street names in English not lost.

In Yekaterinburg, there are houses from the 1920s, which made the apartment without a kitchen and bathroom. In the courtyards were then dining rooms and baths. They partly exist today, because it's too expensive, to complement the apartment bathroom and kitchen.

Asked to help paste posters. I said I do not speak in Russian, but I gave up, it's nothing. I do not know what is written here.

The fishermen were fishing in a completely terrible, dirty "river". I'd be scared out there fishing.

Rybak beat the fish on the ground and had offered in a plastic bag.

Olya and Stas told me in a river that no one was swimming, but there are different cranks

The bridge many castles - so the bride and groom hold together its alliance, the key of the lock is released into the water, so that no one has found. It is unclear who would become a volunteer to look for clues in this "river" ...

From Yekaterinburg to Novosibirsk.

A very long distance! At one of the stations were selling the fish. As I understand it here, near Barabinsk many lakes.

I tried to eat fish with knife and fork, but I did not succeed

I have shown that eating this fish without a knife and fork without. I had to pull off the skin from the tail to the head.

The meat was very salty and delicious. There was a fair battleground with fish and my hands smelled, despite repeated washing, for quite some time.

There are many more eating noodles. Alex said that in Russian it is called bomzharka

Novosibirsk.

This is a very big city and very uncomfortable and dirty.

I was walking along the river and watched from time to time fishermen as they fill up rods in brown muck. River bank in the center of town was a dump garbage.

Are there really someone can swim freely? And so it is understandable that you can not swim here.

It turns out it's all called "amusement park". Lol. Funny.

The rides were only a single guest and some looked at him, how he was having fun. It's pretty funny.

Here come the wedding limousine, and no one really seems this beach does not bother.

In Russia, a lot of weddings.

Weddings can be a really popular sport Russian. Often they get married and divorced.

In zoo

In the bar

In the Novosibirsk museum for some reason not allowed to take pictures. Nothing in English and understand the meaning of the exhibits can only vaguely.

In the basement was a small collection of incoherent acting sugar and cans for beverages. Children's Collection Coke my sister more than the accumulation of everything in this museum. Very few people in Russia know English, even on a simple level.

German only know from the experience of common knowledge in the Soviet Union: "Hands high!" "Quickly, quickly!" and "Hitler is spoiled."

We go to Irkutsk.

Incredibly, only trade on the platforms is growing and growing.
