Pioneer camp Eaglet ("Orlyonok") near Samara (ex-Kuybyshev), in years 1987-90. Bright but double memories. It called "bathing days", however there was no bath-house, only shower. Do you want to share this memories in russian? Can you write me to dimk-kmid@mail.ru? I am not speaking english so good. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
