Yalta



Yesterday we went down to Yalta, a "resort" city on the black sea. We went to Livadia, the summer palace of the last few Czars of Russia and the place where the Yalta conferece was held with President Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Stalin at the end of World War II. Joe was of course interested in all of the history. I thought it was cool to walk around the place where Anastasia played as a child.

I'm you with Jaime! I think it would be neat to walk where Anastasia did.
& of course Hazen would enjoy the history as Joe.
Thanks for the pics-
It sounds like things are going great. Glad you could share this time with Jim & Karen.
With our love to all of you,
Dad and Mom

Joe and Family-

I saw your mom in the park and she told me about your blog. What a beautiful little boy he is! Your nephew Malachi is in my son, Trenton's kindergarten class. Trent likes him a lot. Your family has always been a blessing to my family. Vacya will make a great addition to a wonderful bunch of people.

Lots of Love,
