We had a great time in Sochi,Russia today visiting Stalin's Dacha. This city was quite a surprise--lots of flowers and beautiful hotels. They're getting ready for the 2014 Winter Olympics, so things were really spruced up. Fred, Sinop was a really pleasant stop -- not a lot to see, but the people were really friendly and happy to see a bunch of Americans again. Tomorrow we have a private tour in Sevastopol with David and Mary Elaine and we'll go to the secret submarine base (guess it's not so secret any more Since our son is a submariner, we have to pay attention and report back to him. So far this has been a great trip and a really interesting one--the weather has been perfect.
