The matryoshkas are wonderful and you could find them everywhere. I think they are still there today, but more fanciful or elegant. But I like these original ones.

You are right about we having to move to smaller places as we get older. There are a lot of things to take care of. I found that when I retired I wanted to do less and just enjoy the good things in life. And enjoying doing all the things we did not have time to do before.

Maybe more than a bit. But what fun things you have found. I fear that would completely derail my efforts and I'd be reading and reading! I've been helping a friend get ready for a cross country move here and it was a big poke in the ribs to remind me that one day I may have to do the same. Maybe not cross country but much smaller and starting now is better than doing it under pressure. I don't envy you the task but do envy the hours of pleasure walking through lovely parts of the past.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5394411873394023490.post-74655465905191519512016-09-22T18:20:15.151+02:002016-09-22T18:20:15.151+02:00When my ex-sister-in-la was in high school in the ...When my ex-sister-in-la was in high school in the mid-1970s, she went on a class trip to Russia. It was very unusual at the time, and the matryoshka doll she brought back for my daughter was the first we had ever seen. <br /><br />Your post brings back lots of memories! :-)Debbie Rodgershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630059470408161434noreply@blogger.com
