Olgita`s modest notes

Weekend

Saturday, June 13, 2009 11:57:06 AM

, ,

It was day off in Russia yesterday, the weather was cloudy but pretty good so we decided to go on picnic with friends!smile We found a nice place in the city with ponds. We spent a really good time there but we had to wait our meat for barbecue as one of my friend put it to the fridge and we waited it to melt!smilebigsmile And everybody were hungry of course!smile

After our lunch we played different games and the main game for that day was Monopoly... That was the first time I played the game till the end:) Almost!smile As I felt tired I had to sell my bussiness and fund all money to the charity!smile This is really exciting game, especially if you have 4-6 players. You really can have fun and grow heated!smileup

Так как вчера был выходной и погодка радовала, несмотря на устрашающие тучи, мы решили организовать пикник на Воробьевых горах! Местечко тихое и удобное, рядом пруды... Все было хорошо, вот только мясо пришлось ждать долго, так как кое-то забыл вытащить его из морозилки!smile Так что, нашей мужской половине пришлось топить маринованый лед, а мы тем временем наслаждались природой!smile

После обеда мы играли в Монополию... 4-5 часов подряд!smile Следует отметить, что это единственный раз, когда я доиграла почти до конца. Измотавишись, мне пришлось продать свой бизнес и положить все деньги в благодтворительный фонд!smile Игра очень азартная и веселая, особенно, если играют 4-6 человек!!!smile В конце концов осталось 2 игрока, один из которых сдался перед напором другого!smile

I have never seen a Russian Monopoly game before ... though you call it "Millionaire"! Очень интересно! I suspect the game is a recent introduction to the former Workers' Paradise? It is SO un-Marxist!

Well, on second thought, maybe it's not. LOL

От последней фотки мороз по коже! pssst

OlgaOlgita Saturday, June 13, 2009 3:26:21 PM

От какой именно!?smile Я там отредактировала пост немного!smile

derWandersmann, you are right! But I have no idea why they renamed it in Russia... Some years ago it called Monopoly...

Почтальон ПечкинPostmanPechkin Saturday, June 13, 2009 3:31:28 PM

Аааааааааааа! Вот так то лучше.
Мороз по коже от первой фотки. А от последней покоем веет.
Кстати, на последней фотке, это не твоя ли розовая блузка виднеется в кустах? sherlock

derWandersmann , what's your problem with the marxism eek
it is dead, show some respect then...Though this stupid crisis
is a totally capitalist one
We can see now--> capitalism sucks !!

der WandersmannderWandersmann Saturday, June 13, 2009 5:50:46 PM

I really have no problem with Marxism ... I think that both socialism and capitalism have their good points and bad points ... each needs to be tempered by the other.

But I do not see any point in hijacking Olga's thread, and will indulge in no further political discussion.

The pond looks so serene. And looks you and the gang had a great time up wink

OlgaOlgita Sunday, June 14, 2009 7:42:08 AM

YOu know June is the time of "snow" in Russia!wink You can see it on the pond and in the air! This is a kind of tree - silver poplar (cottonwood)... its white fluff flies everywhere in June!!!http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poplar

der WandersmannderWandersmann Sunday, June 14, 2009 2:13:02 PM

Yes ... it is a common tree in many places in the USA, too, from the hardwood forests of the northeast to the desert southwest. I never thought about it before, but it must be a very adaptable tree, though I do not doubt that there are genetic differences in the trees from the extremes.

Here, in the Northern Midwest, lawns and driveways ... any place that has some sort of wind baffle ... gets choked up with the fuzz, and window screens become opaque.

Hahaha, many interesting comments here... ninja
Anyway, to barbeque the food while still being in plastic cans looks like a local Russian recipe. Here in Norway we remove the meat before we barbeque it... lol lol lol
Anyway, strange why nobody mention the wonderful Лебедь-шипун, Кряква and the nice Белощёкая казарка bug

OlgaOlgita Sunday, June 21, 2009 4:07:07 PM
