Time for dreams
Hello Samantha and my blog's friends!
Last week was a pretty warm weather here. Some beautiful days were with sunny and bright blue sky. I have missed on good weather and .. the sea. We have the Black sea in Russia and like to go to the sea. The temperature of water is warm in summer only. So in winter Russian people prefer go to the Red sea. It is a special felling when you coming from the cold country to the hot. You are full of expectations and pleasures to get few sun, blue sky and warm water in the sea. And it is very good present (which we can make for ourselves) spend one or two weeks on a resort.
I have just come back after shopping. A lot of summer things have arrived to Moscow. New collections of clothes, footwear, hand bags and things for a beach. I would like to go to the sea right now!:) Wish I were on Santorini or on Rhodos islands where I was twice. These are the most terrific places in Greece. I love Greece. Love a soft climate, beautiful beaches for vacation and a lot of historical places for visits. National Greek dishes have fantastic taste. My favorite dishes are: seafood prepared on a grill, or special cheese, vegetables, oil and bread. Absolutely healthy and not fat meal. I do Greek salad (cold snack) at home. Tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, Greek cheese, Greek oil and some special spices. During a day people are swimming and in the evening go to the "taverna" (restaurant). After a long time there J and nice food people go to enjoy a night life. Greek people are cheerful and like a night life. Good dances in a disco or in national "buzuki" are popular. People go to “buzuki” with family or with friends and buy flowers inside of “buzuki”. This is tradition to show respect for the talented singer. People dance on the floor or on the table (sometimes) and throw flowers from their places on a floor around of a singer. Modern Greek music is really good one. I have bought CD and listen to this music from time to time...
Yeah, it is the best time in the life when people are dreaming :) What about your plans for summer? Have you already planned to go to the sea?
PS. I just want to note some thing to the Russian teacher of English with name Elena. Thank you for your comment. It seems you are interested in people who are learning a foreign language and use the opportunity to get a new experience via bbc web site. I think it is not a very professional advice of a teacher just say "you do mistakes" and don't give an example of a mistake. And I sure teachers should be more tolerant if they open STUDENTS blog
I congratulate all with St.Patrick's Day!
Thanks for your attention to my articls!
Have a nice evening,
With best wishes,
Lidia

Hello Lidia,Thank you for your dreamful blog.I would like to go on vocation in Greece,which is more wonderful and beautiful,like a place without memories,additionally,you can relax yourself and give your skin a brlliant tan.Hahaha....nice!!!I havenot got any idea about my summer holiday yet,the good news is my cousin will marry and sister-in-law will give birth to a beautiful baby.Of course,i am looking forward to those things that cheer me up.I love dreams,especially gorgeous ones.Take care!
Hello Lidia , there you are , " long time no see :) " , I'll tell you what . in my country there is a fictional character who lived a long time ago and named Sendbad and he loved a lot to go around the world and seek adventure , and today you made me remember him as you have been to different places and it seems you had a lot of fun in every place where you've been to , exactly what Sendbad had been doing as well . well... keep blogging as I am looking forward to reading more about your journeys , Best wishes ,
hello to lidia and all english lovers.dear lidia!do you think that you must use PS in all of blogs?I think its better use some words like "meanwhile" instead of PS in this blog.I was in greece for my holidays last month.
Hi Lidia! Privet vsem moim druzjam! The spring has just arrived and we are making plans for the summer right away. However, I can only think about my journey in England in April. As the date of our trip is approaching I am becoming more and more excited. I am counting the days until I will be able to hug my daughter again. I have visited some foreign countries which have beautiful coastlines and beaches, crowded streets, historical monuments, busy harbours, marvellous views, dangerous serpentine paths... I have also been to many places you mentioned, to Greece on the island Corfu and Crete, to Malta, to Spain. What is more I went to Russia, at that time of the Soviet Union of course, about twenty something years ago. I was in Sochi and Sukhumi with my parents. I have beautiful memories about the excursion to the Lake Ritsa which is one of picturesque places in Abkhazia. I am sure; everything has changed since then so I would like to visit these places again. By the way, we also like listening to Greek music and I quite often prepare tzaziki. Bye,
Hi dear Lidia, I hope you have a great time and enjoyed the last sunny week. it's sounds that you like sunny days and travel. but unfortunately here in Kabul the weather has been rainy and cloudy for few days and on 21 March is our new year, i hope the weather become warm and sunny on Wednesday, because i want to go for the celebration of NAWROZ(new year)to Mazar-i-sharif a wonderful city in Afghanistan which thousends of people came across the country for celebrating of new year.If you didn't celebrate your new year, i invite you for the celebrating of new year with my family. and i hope to see more bloggers from you. Best of luck,
hi,lidia.I suppose so many virtual friends were waiting for your blogs during these days. I am sure you were really busy with your job. Additional, do your Russians come directly from winter to summer? Donn't you have spring? Every shopaholic in China now is buying spring clothes instead of summer's.Summer clothes will be expected to emerge at around 5.1 Labor Day. Waiting for your next entry.
Kalispera Lidia, I also love Greece, people, weather and the food. We are going to Lesvos, also known as Mytilini-island, at the end of May for two weeks. We are really looking forward to go. Over the years we have visited Greece many times. We also, like you, have been to Santorini and Rhodes. Presumably you visited Oia and Thira (Fira)? All the best for everyone.
Dear Lidia, I'm very glad to hear from you again. It's always very nice to read your entries about your fascinating life in Moscow. Now you are dreaming of holidays in subtropical environments, I recognise that. After winter we all need some sun in relexing areas, I'm dreaming too!! I'm looking forward to your next entry!!! Best wishes from Wim
From BBC Learning English Hello everyone, this is just a little reminder that when writing in this area you need to follow the house rules. You're very good at this and frequently write supportive things to each other. You just need to keep doing this even when you're disagreeing with each other. Sadly, if you don't I have to delete comments or edit them :-( Talking of editing comments, Adriana, thanks for your short note. I've no idea what they're building at the Grand Canyon, I'll need to check on google. Don't worry about the fact that you included lyrics in your post. You weren't to know that even though we're an educational site we don't have permission to publish lyrics. We are trying to change that and, if we do, you'll be free to publish away ;-) Have a good week everyone. Paul
Hello Lidia. I am very sorry for writing such a comment to you. I don’t know which fly bit me that I wrote so. I had no right to correct you. I was blaming myself these several days waiting for your new entry. As it didn’t appear I was asking myself again and again who gave me the right to correct and judge. I MAKE a lot of MISTAKES myself. I am very good at making mistakes. I wonder if it’s okay to say so: DOING your best you MAKE fewer MISTAKES. Do these “M M” ring the bell? LOL If an Englishman reads my diary or blog, the faint is provided. :-))) Every learner makes mistakes. It’s okay. You may ask why I changed my mind about it. I’ve read some previous bloggers. Mistakes were and will be. No matter who make them a blogger or Readers. If somebody finds it difficult and irritating to read- there are two ways to go: to read or not to read at all. If you are not sure about something , use your dictionary. It’s always useful. In the course of time you see mistakes of others clear and your own knowledge becomes more solid. And it doesn’t bother any more. Well, it is my experience. And I just want to say that this site is for all students :for beginners and advanced learners. We have to be patient to others. I am grateful for this site is live. It is the most important. Some sites are not updated very often and comments appear just from time to time. This site is free, comments are sooooo lovely, teacher’s remarks are on time. Lidia, I hope you accept my apology. I might hurt you.I am sorry. I really felt bad in my soul. Thank you for telling about Greece. I heard the Greek song on the radio recently. Maybe it was about the sea. I was interested in everything Greek in my childhood, but now I only remember two words-talassa and agapo. Their cheerful syrtaki is something special!!! Maybe I go there someday too. I’d like to hope. I hope you had good Sunday as well. All the best to you. Annet.
Hi,Lidia and freinds. I am your new freind from Thailand (hope you know where it is). If you love the sun and the sea why don't you come to my country? Bye for now
Oh, I'm always late with my comments. Hello, Lidia, I'm so, so, so happy to hear from you again and again ad again. I've already read "From Lidia-1, 2 and 3"...so, I want to see "From Lidia- all the numbers until the end", ok? Please, don't forget the sun screen and remember you have to apply it 20 minutes before being exposed to sunlight and have a good time there, ok? Paul thank you. Ah! They are building a space like a terrace ( I don't know how to explain in english) for the tourists to see the Grand Canyon. A big kiss for you all
Hi lidia How r u?
Hi, Lidia. I'm here for the first time and I'm very happy!! What a crazy weather here too . Yesterday was summer and...now it's snowing!! It's covering flowers, blossoms and green leaves: What have we done to deserve such a change! I'm not thinking of my summer holidays yet but I like the countries like Scotland, Ireland or Denmark since I enjoy the sun every day at home: i live in a beautiful small old town in the north of Italy. Bye for now. Passerotto
