The “American” direction was previously selected by us as a priority. Of course, we weren’t going to go on vacation exclusively to visit Mr. Obbama — I wanted to see other interesting places with the indispensable attributes of a real vacation for the northerners – hot sun, warm sea … A weighty argument in our pre-holiday throwings was my school friend’s summer visit to us, now living in the Continue reading
