  We start by the Matrix in Sovietskaya street

To arrest our imagination, the pirates appeared in the street

 
   
  The singers are enlivening the mood of the first visitors Here they are the first guests and listeners  
 

 
  Shashlyks are offered at any here and there The fish soup from the HUGE barrel tastes fantastic!  
   
  That is a paradise for kids indeed! All the lovely things here are baked. These are actually various kinds of bread  
   
  You bet! One can be at a loss here! A backcountry cabin. That is really a rare occasion of insight into the countryside idyll for the kids of a big city!  
   
  A village yard amid a big city! Welcome to our countryside home!
