Just some videos I found on You Tube that bring back memories from Russia. These were both filmed in Tyumen, where I served for 11 months. The first video is at the open market where they chop up meat (cows and pigs) using axes and big stumps painted green. Then the ladies pick up the meat with their bare hands to bring it out to the counter to sell it. Of course, the meat is not refrigerated. Love it!
This is the normal display on New Years Eve. This is exactly what I remember. Fireworks so close I could have touched them! You've got to wait a little while for it to really get going...
