Day out with mom

Today is Sunday, a day off in Kazakhstan! hahah! So unusual after living in Israel for 3 and a half years to witness quiet Sundays again. People chill with their families and friends inside if it is cold; if it is warm outside, like today, they go for a walk or shopping; if there is a lot of snow they go skiing and skating. My mom was so excited to spend whole day with us. My sister asked us to look around for wedding dresses which we did with pleasure today. It was +3 today, soooooo warm and no wind at all, the weather as if we ordered for our smooth adjustment. The snow is melting everywhere, dark roads and walkways are showing again and it feels like spring. Since we don't have a car, we took a bus to the center of our town and walked from shop to shop. It was a very pleasant walk, good workout, and it gave us a chance to explore the town more. Here are few pictures we took:

I must say peaple living in our area which is quite cold during winter are concerned about being warm and looking beautiful at the same time. They come up with the most exclusive models of hats and coats and boots that are warm and suitable for winter. I was so impressed by the choice of fur hats in this store that couldn't help but to take a picture of the one I liked the most.
