Day 259 : A Very Soxy City
... commemoration to the 1st Christmas tree on its 500 year anniversary, drank some local liquors and brews as well as trying the local speciality; pelmeni. We even managed to fit in an encounter with the very eager local police, who were visibly excited as they approached us, ready to pounce on our delinquent behaviour of drinking alcohol on the streets.
