I really very much enjoyed being in Russia and I want to go again, but there really is no place like home. Silver birch trees are beautiful but I missed the variety of oak, ash and beech etc. The part of Russia we visited seemed to be very flat, but in Devon, where I live we have lots of little hills all around us. They are not mountains but we do enjoy climbing up them sometimes. It is a tribute to Russia that I was not longing to go home, but pleased when we were on our way to the airport. Once in Britain we had a people carrier to take us home, with a very nice considerate driver. It was good to see as the miles passed that we were in familiar territory. What bliss to get into one's own bed and relax. It took several days to come down to earth.
