Sochi 2014!

I live in sunny California.
We've been experiencing a winter drought.

But I love curling!


I also love downhill skiing, cross country skiing and ice skiing. Nevertheless I won't be in Sochi this month to watch the 2014 Winter Olympics. In fact the closest I'll get to Russia in the present, near future or distant past is through the Russian readers of my blog. After the U.S.A, the country with the most numerous readers of my New House Girl blog is Russia. Who knew?

So I'd like to say привет (privet/"hello") and спасибо (spasibo/ "thank you")! Also, I send you kudos for a beautiful Sochi Opening Ceremony last night! I look forward to learning about your country in the coming weeks.  

Let the Games begin! Happy curling! Vodka!

      Hi Alex,
      Like you I am a total Olympics geek. I just love watching those top athletes do what they do. The hockey and all forms of skiing--love it! Enjoy today!

    I think I have more clicks from Russia than the US. That's really strange.

      Hi Tracy,
      More Russian clicks than American ones? I know why. It's all those blog posts you've written about babushkas and vodka. Enjoy today!
