Magical City

Aloha!
Yesterday.. Oh, not yesterday. On the 25th of May my city celebrated its 1003rd Birthday! And I would like to share with you some historical facts about it and, of course, some photos I've taken during that evening.
So, the history of my city (which is by the way called Yaroslavl) started in the 1010, when the prince Yaroslav the Wise visited one unknown corner of his kingdom. There is a legend that says that when Yaroslav came here he wanted to build a new city on this place. But the people who lived here were wild and didn't want to give up their land. They sent the huge bear to kill the prince. But Yaroslav was very brave, so he fought the beast and killed it. People had nothing else to do but to call Yaroslav the ruler of their land. The city was built here and it was given the name of its founder - Yaroslavl.
Nowadays my city holds the 6th place among the best cities in Russia. It is a famous part of the Golden Ring, which is one of the tourists' most favorite destinations. A lot of people come to visit Yaroslavl every year.
Two days ago my city celebrated its 1003rd birthday. It was a huge deal for everyone who lives here. There were a lot different entertainments on the streets, everyone was happy. At the end of the day we watched the fireworks. And I have to say that it was one of the most magical days that I had here, even the rain didn't spoil anything!

Magical Summer 2012


Hello everyone!
I know I'm such an awful blogger, I'm really sorry! But anyways, I hope someone is still reading this lol. So I thought I would share some latest news with you guys.
Actually, I have only one but it really is huuuuggggeeee! This summer my mom and I are going to Disneyland Paris! Yay! I'm so so so so excited! I have to say that this trip won't be my first trip there. I've aleady been there before about 3 times, I believe. DLP is such a magical place! You can meet your favorite characters and just feel yourself like a little kid again. So, enough talking I want to share some pictures from my latest trip to DLP in 2012. It was awesome! We were able to see their magic shows for the 20th anniversary. Anyway, enjoy the photos!
Day 1. We visited both parks and did some really cool things there. We went on the Crush's Coaster ride for the very first time and it was so much fun! My mom also got the candy apple; she said it was very tasty :) We also watched Disney Dreams and met some characters:)
Day 2. I met Winnie-the-Pooh, who is my fave character! YAY! We also went on some rides, such as the boat, Mad Hatter's tea cups and others.
Day 3. The last day there:( We even got up earlier to experience 2 magic hours before official opening time. It was something unbelievable! There was almost no one in the park so we really enjoyed our last hours there.
It's a small world ride
