Visiting Sochi, Russia
I'm here for few days already and going to stay for few more. I'm heading home on 6th of February and going to be at home on 7th of February. I have a long trip home ahead.
My experience here so far is good even tho we had to face many problems just to finally leave Riga airport and fly to Moscow. Plane which we had to fly with was in a technically bad condition to fly and crew of that plane realized it only moments before the take off. We were going very fast, almost ready to get off from earth's surface until we suddenly stopped. Stopped quickly. It caused panic over few passengers for couple minutes. But soon everything was clear. We had moved out of the take off road and we were informed that there were techincal problems with wings.
We spend almost 4 hours sitting in a plane until everything was fine. When we finally arrived at airport in Moscow we had already missed our next flight to Sochi. But we got compensations and tickets to other plane so everything in fact was good, only that we had spent a lot of time.
Once we finally arrived to Sochi, we noticed that our luggage was missing. But we got it back after two days. Strange thing happened. My dad's t-shirt from Lisbon with its national symbols and few other things were missing.
Now everything is fine except that I don't have a camera with me. Photos I take here seem colorless and whack. However, I managed to select between them and have few to upload.
This place is looking so peaceful ,keep doing this kind of adorable work.
It's incredible here during non tourist season. Next goal is to check on Sweden and Estonia and visit their Baltic Sea coast-lines. Hopefully I will manage to do it this weekend.
Anyways, thank you! I will try my best to keep them coming. ;)
Sochi had the 2014 winter Olympics.
Beautiful. The colors look stunning.
Thank God your journey was successful and you guys did not take off before they notice a fault. God actually save you guys. And nice pictures hope you enjoy your staying there.
Yes, I'm really glad everything turned out positive. More than 100 lives might have been taken out and countless would have been left hurt. I'm thankful to God and others should be too. It might seem like nothing, but only one knows how it might have ended.
Thanks, glad you liked them!;)
That's good and thank God for everything. Please can you check my post. Thank you

I know that the Russia are cold but the sea looks so beautiful.
I'm in very south of Russia. It's really not that cold here, about 13 degrees celcius now. And the sea is incredible. Everyday I come here and get a surprise.
Even though the problems the photos look really nice.I hope that were the only problems you had to face.How many degrees is it there ? It must be really cold now,I guess..
I hope too..
It's not that cold actually, about 14°C. Compared to tempature where I live I can definitely say that it's really warm. Back at my home it's only 3°C or 5°C.
