My heart would have sung to see a carnival with music and beautiful people. Oh my father's ancestors also were German-speaking Mennonites from the Ukraine.

But somehow, I always picture Russia as grey and dull in my mind. Could it be because of the Cold War images that were published and were always dreary? I don't know. But you are showing me new images to hold in my mind - color and movement, happiness, women with beautiful skin and red lips. These are wonderful. <br />As a sidenote, Russia has always fascinated me and I'd love to visit someday. Both of my grandfathers escaped from Russia after the first World War. They were German-speaking Mennonites living in the Ukraine. My grandmothers' families came earlier.
