Tyumen is 420 years old today. It’s a BIG celebration. Last night there were fireworks and tonight again. I couldn’t see any of them from my flat because I live on the second floor and they are higher than the angle I can see from my apartment. It’s crazy to live in a city that’s older than my country. Whoa.
It’s crazy how big the celebration is. Yeah – it’s been raining all day today, but the people came out in droves and stores even closed early (yeah – I showed up at one store 3 minutes after they closed). Bummer.
I wish I’d taken some pictures of the crowds today – but I wimped out to protect my camera.
