Thank you ALL so much for these pix!! They bring back such memories. I wish I had taken more pix. My advice to those of you traveling is to take lots of pictures. I wish I had more.

This is the statue of Mother Russia located in Volgograd. THe statue is larger than the Statue of Liberty. It is the second largest statue in the world. The blue on the bottom is contruction work and and the blue wall is about 7feet tall. It was amazing!
