Mõnikord on nii mõnus nokitseda, mõnikord on lõõgastav mängida klaverit ja mõnikord on lausa rõõm veeta hommikuid ja õhtuid lugedes.

Muljeid Tolyattist 4
We swam in Volga today. It was so hot that it seemed to be necessary thing to do. I can't say that water was transparent. So I took shower afterwards. Beach:
Lihtsalt ilus vaade:
Just a beautiful view:
Linna suurim autoremondi töökoda:
The biggest repairshop in the city:
Muljeid Tolyattist 3
No photos today but instead a short announcement. I suspect that I've been bitten by fleas!!! I haven't seen any but my skin has several little red dots that itch like crazy. If someone can suggest what to do that those fleas won't move to my home please share the knowledge!

Muljeid Tolyattist 2
I didn't take my camera with me so here are some photos I took with my phone.
Peatume linnast natuke väljas asuvas hotellis, mis asub Volga kaldal. Linnaga võrreldes on hotell ja selle ümbrus nagu täiesti teine maailm. Hotelli kõrval asub golfiklubi ja Hruštšovi kunagine residents.
We stay at a hotel that is a little out of city. It's located on the shore of Volga. Compared to the city the hotel and its surroundings are like totally different world. Next to the hotel there is a golf club and former residence of Hruchtchov.
Siin on vaade hotelli välirestoranist:
View from the outdoor restaurant of the hotel:

Pärast sööki otsustasime minna jõe äärde jalutama.
After dinner we decided to walk a little at the river banks.

Värav, mis ei vii kuhugi
Võib-olla julgen homme ka linnas mõne pildi teha...
Maybe I'll manage to take some photos of the city tomorrow...

Muljeid Tolyattist 1
Tegemist on paneelikaid täis linnaga. Pargid on hooldamata, muru pole keegi kuskil vaevunud niitma. Kogu piirkond elab ainult autotööstuse peal. Täna külastasin Lada kontorit. Seinad on endiselt täis nõukogude sümboolikat ja fuajees ripub autahvel.
Soovitus oli: 'Do not leave the hotel in the evenings'. Eks siis peab seda soovitust järgima.
Positiivse poole pealt saab öelda, et loodus on siin kaunis. Linn asub Volga kaldal ja teisel pool jõge on ka madalad mäed, mis loovad väga maalilise vaate. Lisaks on siin mõnusalt soe.
Ootan järgnevat nädalat huviga....
At the moment I'm on business trip in Russia in a city called Tolyatti/Togliatti. It's a capital of Russian car industry. I don't have my camera with me because Wikipedia describes this city as really criminal place. Also our hosts told us not to leave the hotel in the evening.
It's a city full of ugly soviet architecture. The parks haven't been taken care of. There's really high grass everywhere.
I visited the office of Lada factory today. There are still soviet attributes on the walls, also there's a honorary wall in the lobby.
From the positive side I can say that nature is beautiful around here. The city is located on the banks of river Volga. On the other side there are some hills that create really picturesque view.
Suvine müts

Suvine sall
Suve juurde kuuluvad kahtlemata puuvillased heegeldatud õlasallid, mida veidi viludama ilma korral õlule võtta. Samuti kaitsevad nad ka päikese eest. Siin ongi üks selline.
Cotton crocheted triangular shawls definitely suit for summer. You can put them on your shoulders when the weather is a little cooler. Also it protects you from the sun. Here's one just suitable for all of that.
Mmmm... meri, päike ja valge sall.
Mmm... sea, sun and white shawl.

Kohe kui ma nägin seda mustrit, teadsin, et pean proovima seda ise ka kududa. See on väga hea moodus lõngajääkide kulutamiseks.
From the moment I saw this pattern I knew I have to knit it. It's also very good way to get rid of the leftovers.

Tegelikult see elevant paraku päris püsti ei seisa. Pea ja lont on liiga rasked:
Actually this elephant doesn't stand up on its own. Head and trunk are too heavy:
