So I've finally put up all the May photos that I'm going to put up, and have moved on into summer. The first photos are from Novosibirsk, where the geographical center of Russia is. We were only there for two days but I had a great time with my host sister Yulia getting lost multiple times and taking walks in the middle of the night.
The rest of the photos were taken either in Barnaul's big garden thing twenty minutes out of town, or in the Middle of Nowhere - or at least it felt like it. Basically the Bergers and I decided to go way out of town to a place none of us had been, perhaps only an hour from the center of Barnaul but seemingly at the end of the earth, because it was pretty. I didn't get very many photos, though, because the Siberian mosquito hordes attacked us every time we opened the car door. Oh well.
