Moryakovka



On the morning of Thursday, Dec. 31 (New Year's Eve!) we had a great breakfast, including baked egg whites (really good!) and hopped on the bus for the hour long trip to Moryakovka Orphanage.  The snow along the road was absolutely beautiful!  It was at least two feet deep along the side of the road and clinging to the pine trees in the surrounding forest.  I found it interesting that all the roads are scraped but no salt or other chemicals are used to clear them.  The snow is very dry and squeaky - not very good for snowballs!
