I adore summer! It’s my favourite season! Maybe because I always have a break from work or maybe in summer we can enjoy spending time on the great Russian river Volga. Fortunately Saratov is situated on the right bank os this wonderful river ( the longest in Europe, but not in Russia). My family has a small powerboat, so we have a nice opportunity to have boat trips among numerous picturesque islands and enjoy the beauty of nature and tranquility. When we find some suitable island we stay there for picnicing. We usually prepare shashlyk (grilled meat on the fire). Also we enjoy fishing, swimming, playing with the ball or just walking around the island and picking flowers or wild berries. If the weather is fine we can stay on the island and spend the night in the tent or in the boat. It’s great!

    2388043416?profile=originalLol…! I could visualize you eating a handful of strawberries.

    Would you believe it if I tell you that strawberry is grown in Cameron Highlands, the place where I was born and brought up before moving to Penang? I used to eat strawberries almost every day when I worked in a farm for a few months while was waiting for my GCE O Levels results! Those were the days, my friend!

  • Wow! Gabriel! Another famous song by Bony M! Thanks for the lyrics and for the music! It’s also  one of my favourites….so energetic, cheerful and foot tapping! I can't help dancing while listening to it! It’s great to recall the Bony M songs!   By the way,  thanks for the new word  'lifebuoy! I haven't known it before.

    Hmmmm...honey and strawberry....seems so delicious! I've never tasted it in this combination. It's time for the first fresh honey now in Russia. I adore fresh flower honey! It's so clear, so sweet! Now I'm going to taste it with strawberry!

  • Hi, Galina! 

    I’m sure you’ll burst out laughing after reading this! You know what? When I first looked at this photograph, the lifebuoy that you’re holding reminded me of a bigger version of the doughnutcross my heart and hope to die! Also, this song started spinning in my mind, “Brown Girl in the Ring!” Okay, I know that you’re a Pinkish Girl and you don't look like a sugar in a plum as mentioned in the song but I would rather say that you look like a honey in the strawberry! I hope you’ll like this song. Enjoy!

  • Brow Girl in the Ring!

    CHORUS...

    Brown girl in the ring
    Tra la la la la
    There's a brown girl in the ring
    Tra la la la la la
    Brown girl in the ring
    Tra la la la la
    She looks like a sugar in a plum
    Plum plum

    Show me your motion
    Tra la la la la
    Come on show me your motion
    Tra la la la la la
    Show me your motion
    Tra la la la la
    She looks like a sugar in a plum
    Plum plum

    All had water run dry
    Got nowhere to wash my cloths
    All had water run dry
    Got nowhere to wash my cloths

    I remember one Saturday night
    We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes
    I remember one Saturday night
    We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes

    Beng-a-deng ... Beng-a-deng

    CHORUS...

    Show me your motion
    Tra la la la la
    Come on show me your motion
    Tra la la la la la
    Show me your motion
    Tra la la la la
    She looks like a sugar in a plum
    Plum plum

    All had water run dry
    Got nowhere to wash my cloths
    All had water run dry
    Got nowhere to wash my cloths

    I remember one Saturday night
    We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes
    I remember one Saturday night
    We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes

    Beng-a-deng ... Beng-a-deng

    CHORUS...

    All had water run dry
    Got nowhere to wash my cloths
    All had water run dry
    Got nowhere to wash my cloths

    CHORUS...

  • Robbie, You can't imagine how glad I am to see your comment! It's so great you like the photo! I suppose you like it because you adore summer, too. I remember your brilliant photos on the beach! I remember the unusual white sand( I've never seen such sand) and fabulous sandcastles! You look so happy on these photos! It's my dream to visit such beaches!

    Oh, Robbie, you've mentioned pearl shakes. What's this? I've never heard about it, but I know kite flying. It's really exciting, because kites look so colourful and bright!
