In the Fall, we spent a week at Kisoovodsk in the Caucas mountain range and the scenary was spectacular. Kisoovodsk is famous for its mineral baths and we were able to experience part of the 10-bath cycle that increases in length from 7 minutes to 30 minutes. We also went to Moscow where we witnessed the ongoing reconstruction of a Russian Orthodox church. This particular church is a symbol of spiritual rejuvenation for the country and the government has set up huge floodlights at night to show the progress being made. Pointer had to make some adjustments to her daily living regime while in Voronezh.
Women don t exercise, period.
About the only thing we could do was swim laps in one of the community pools. Since returning home, Pointer is more appreciative of the living standard we tend to accept as the norm. I cook and clean a lot more than I ever did before, which is a healthy change for me. It s funny. Especially during the Spring term, when I was there, I couldn t wait to come home.
