The City day of Yekaterinburg - 2015 [1]

2015 was rich in travel and adventure for me. Let's leave aside my foreign travels and let's go back to 16 Aug 2015, at the annual celebration of the Сity Day of Yekaterinburg (Russia). However, the official date of the city foundation is 18 November 1723. But no one is interested in historical truth, if you want a holiday... ) And on the third Saturday of August, the people joyfully pours out on the streets, take a walk, drink beer, listen to music & city fathers.

Yeh! The Beatles arrived in the Ural mountains. (A concert of local musicians, not far from Russia's first monument to the Beatles).

Our Ural dolls very harsh! )

Firm "Stenka Razin" offers... [Stenka Razin - the russian robber and the rebel. Legend reports that he threw his girlfriend, a Persian Princess, into the sea. Because his companions said that he chose a woman his friends.] (Boating on the city pond. Someone wrote in my review: "I confirm, they came back without princesses" :)

"The Ural folk groups" lip sync. (In this summer you can meet on the streets some "South American Indians", allegedly playing their music on the flutes. However, sometimes they forget to bring the flute to his lips...).
