We are looking forward to learning all about this area.
Here are a few facts that we have found out already:
General information on the city of Novosibirsk:

ReplyDeleteThe pictures you posted are absolutely beautiful Carol. Your daughter is going to have a wonderful experience. Not only is it beautiful there, I am sure the weather is harsh, but thankfully, she is used to being around cold weather coming from Idaho! Do you and Joe think you might want to plan to go pick Mindy up in 18 months from July? How exciting for your whole family and especially for Mindy!
