I recall ads we had in Canada (yup they sold Ladas) "How do you like your Lada? I like mine just fine." Hehe. Well I always thought not every Russian car would be crud, after all I always liked the T-34 and Il-2 and while far from fancy machinery they worked well and were durable.

Here are some photos from small town Sebezh (Себеж) in Pskov Region (North-western parts of Russia). I've lived there for two years in 80-s during my father's military service. These photos weren't taken by me - I wish they were but they are from an official site of the town and nereby Nature Park :

Ah Pskov,, beuatiful town and a church on every corner so it seemed.
I'll have to dig out a photo I took of a church, the Sky behind is black with cloud but the sun was reflecting nicely off the white church. almost holy like. |
I'm longing to see it, XabbaRus! :)

Excuse my ignorance, but what boat is that?
|
Russian tango class SSK but im looking at the picture 3/4 of the way to sleep.
|
Yes, she is Tango class indeed (project 641B "Som" (641Б "Сом") ). Her number is Б-396. Now she is a museum and situated near the North Port on Himkinskoye storage pond (nothern parts of Moscow).
Best Regards |
I went to that last year, and I was told the next day they were closing it to start work on the museum. Is it still open?
|
It opened in July this year. Luzhkov ( mayor of Moscow ) is planning to make it a part of a bigger Navy museum including SKR "Druzhny" project 1135 (Krivak I) it's already in Moscow too but still under reconstruction:

And now they also have brought this one near the Б-396 and it also would be a part of a museum:
