We live as long as we fly
"The Reading Buddha"
Year 2003, autumn.
How we mustered up the motivation - I don't even know myself. Citizen Mosalsky, by the way, was against it, which didn't stop him from taking an active part.
Not so long ago, my friend Shurik suggested taking a trip to Jūrmala. That would be fine and dandy, except it was March outside. I've always had a soft spot for all sorts of crazy, out-of-the-box ideas, so I didn't have the slightest objection and agreed right away. Shurik, however, turned out to be more visionary than I thought: as it turns out, you can admire the sea at any time of the year.
So you don't get the urge to pack us all off to the loony bin, I suggest taking a look at the photos.
