More Holiday Fun

 Our less than ideal 'guest bedroom' Ploy said she loved sleeping on the floor (bless her!) Dasha had the couch bed - here they are hanging up their laundry - we like our drying racks! Love these young women!
 Monday, January 7th was Christmas Day and we had tickets to the Cinderella Ballet - so we headed downtown on the subway - Elder Smith worked at the mission office....he came with us to the evening events of our fun week - didn't want us downtown without him!
 Dasha taking pictures in the subway tunnel of Russian history - fun to have her and Ploy to translate for me!  I learned a lot from them.
 Ploy on the other side of the tunnel - more Russian history - very military !
 We noticed in the main square - trailers unloading reindeer! 
 The whole square was busy with activities - they build these ice slides and the kids wait in line for their turn to slide!
Neither Dasha nor Ploy had ever been to Novosibirsk - they showed me so many things in Irkutsk that it was fun to reverse and show them the few things I knew about in Novo!! Love these cute tourists!
