Tourists love them and it speeds you past the road traffic. <br /><br />Now we need a tramway from St Petersburg to Spain, so I can stop by and say hi!<br /><br />Thanks for commenting!<br /><br />RobRob MacDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17050545070418063352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030144909492747445.post-22861274117446322332011-02-17T15:29:00.056+03:002011-02-17T15:29:00.056+03:00Hi Vitaliy,

Every 10 days or so I write on one main topic based on my experience and observation, with a lot of internet research.<br /><br />Thanks and stop by anytime!<br /><br />RobRob MacDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17050545070418063352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030144909492747445.post-92184265844616577982011-01-29T18:12:00.944+03:002011-01-29T18:12:00.944+03:00Interesting stuff - looks like the same cycle is r...Interesting stuff - looks like the same cycle is repeating itself.

I can get around on my own at around an intermediate level.<br /><br />I spend my time reading literature, blogging, and cooking... which all keep life from getting dull!<br /><br />It's all up to how you view things, so I find with reflection that my time in the USA wasn't any better than now in Russia. <br /><br />All good wishes,<br /><br />RobRob MacDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17050545070418063352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030144909492747445.post-79294944026091986792011-01-27T14:48:37.495+03:002011-01-27T14:48:37.495+03:00Reply from Rob

I mean - in what way you spend you time here.<br />I am asking because I came to the conclusion that your Russian is not very good and I suppose you may find living here a little dullAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030144909492747445.post-41170306626870424722011-01-26T15:55:12.062+03:002011-01-26T15:55:12.062+03:00I love the trams there too!
