these buildings are original buildings, churches and houses that were in Novrogod ...some are over 800 years old...they were faken from different places around Novrogod and taken to this museum village.
This afternoon we have been to the local Kremlin
the cathedral, which is a functioning church in the town
the church bells are many years old and are still in use...
they even have their own leaning tower...
we waited to cross the river beause it was SNOWING!!!!!
I tried to record it but you can't really see the snow falling, we found a kittle craft shop ans inside was this wonderful quilt
I had permission to take of photo of this quilt...how lovely is this?? All appliqué and beautifully done by the lady in the shop. We got out of the rain and snow to a hotel were we were booked in for dinner...the waitress was very Russian and abrult nd not a little bit friendly.....but we had a great dinner anyway. Soon we are off to get the overnight train to Moscow!!! Arrival tme 5.15 tomorrow morning.
