Fun time talking in Russian to Check out the students from Former Soviet Union, especially the two girls from Kazakstan. Ken was in his element speaking Russian to all the young FSU students at Wall Drug in Wall, South Dakota. Also, our faces are below famous faces at Mount Rushmore! Last day of being tourists for us at a famous place and another obscure place such as Wall Drug but which draws in 1,000s of visitors every day. The billboards brings in the customers for 5 cents per cup of coffee. It worked for us.

Wow! I wish I could visit this place one day! I have seen these famous faces only on the books’ pages. It seems your husband enjoys speaking Russian even in his native country! Good job! For all years of English studying I understood that the best way to learn any foreign language is to communicate with people and do not be afraid to speak and make a mistake. Say HELLO to Mr. Gray) By the way, here, in my hometown, I also have some American friends. I will write some words about them in my next blog.
