I was in Russia for 2 weeks in 1989, we were there for Human Rights, and my husband had a visit with other Atty, at the Law buildings, in Moscow, Lenningrad, Odessa, Georgia. I loved every minute of my visit. I was in awe of the fabulous buildings. Everyone I met was wonderful. I saw lots of Art. I think everyone should see Russia. It is just beautiful. Thanks for your visit. I am Catholic, even though I have a Jewish Husband, he had family from a small town in Russia near Odessa. Hope you can translate to understand. I hope Russia will keep North Korea in line. yvonne
