When I read your title, I thought it was about Scarlett; another person who has six sisters. Better too many choices then the bare shelves of Niamey. It sounds like you guys are doing great and getting about. Enjoy a blini with strawberry preserve for me!

So good to see you back! What a contrast to postings on Niamey — now we will see pictures of a big city! I haven’t traveled in a year and am living vicariously through you!

I’ve seen those sisters when I visited my daughter (Moscowmom). I found it fun and interesting to go to the grocery store with her and almost fell over when she told me the prices of different things (such as fresh tulips in Dec. and ground beef). That day we were down in the center of Moscow at Stockman (no longer there) and it was an upscale grocery store. I understood why she wasn’t buying those tulips that would have been around $8 at my local grocery store chain in southern New England. We then went to a birthday parties at one of her friend’s and there were floral bouquets everywhere that she’d received as gifts and I really could appreciate the value of them.
Hope you and my daughter get to meet soon.LikeLike

I agree Moscow seems 180 degrees (in the shade) different from Niamey, what a contrast. Sound like your sleeping habits are improving no more jet lag, you’re no longer a midnight creaper day light sleeper.

Seven Sisters? Is there a Russian version, too? The only ones I know are the astrological (astronomical?) ones, the Pleiades and the women’s colleges, Smith, Vassar, Mount Holyoke and the like.

Have you seen any tulips in the store yet? It is all mums here in Portland and small pumpkins. I wish I could put four in the mail to you so you could Autumn compliments of the Little Store.
Can’t wait to see more of your adventure!LikeLike
