Do you have a Russian telnyashka? Today is a good day to think about buying it, as today is the Day of Telnyashka, iconic uniform garment worn by the Russian Navy, the Russian Airborne Troops (VDV) and the Russian marines. Dating back to the 19th century Tsarist Navy, it was subsequently worn by the Soviet successors of these troops.
The telnyashka is worn by a number of popular non-military characters of cinema and children's cartoons, notably The Wolf in 'Nu, pogodi' and Matroskin the Cat in 'Troe iz Prostokvashino'.

Dynamic and eccentric final composition of night concert in Moscow Philharmonic Hall.
They are so amazing to start a project of night Friday concerts of classical music to make it more popular and bring it to younger audience. They have started at 23.00 and finished after midnight. We were blessed to hear most popular symphonies of Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff and Shostakovich. Before the concert spectators could vote for the composers, and the organizers would choose what to play. The excellent play of state Philharmonic orchestra of Tatarstan was overwhelming, these guys touring all around the world with their concerts. Amazing. The piece they are playing on video is by Alexander Tchaikovsky, a contemporary composer who was by the way present at the concert yesterday!
Magnificent night of music, joy and light! For sure to visit classy music concert is one of the coolest things when you are in Moscow and actually in any other big Russian city.
Just the right weather for a bike ride along the boulevards in the center of Moscow!
And one more video we cannot stand to share with you. Another our family member jumping three times into the water to celebrate Jesus Baptizing! Amazing, he jumps into the ice hole unturned river, when it is -20C outside!!

Today Russian Orthodox celebrate Jesus Baptizing. By tradition on this day we jump three times into the ice hole. Usually such happening is organized by church in a special place. Here you can see one of our family members jumping into ice hole and putting a cross traditionally three times after each jump into the water. Imagine yourself doing the same?!
