Pack your bags, get on a plane and
get ready to travel all the way, all the
way to Russia on the other side of the
world. But don't forget to bring me, to
find out about who and what is
Russia, it's religion, and common
Russian phrases. Let's go! If you ever
wondered what Red Square is in St.
Petersburg, it's a very fun place to be,
fountains spraying, children laughing,
and teen girls shopping. Our journey starts at Red Square so
hop along and don't be scared.

Who and what
is Russia
"I always wonder what that huge country is?"
Well in Russia you need space to fit all the
food and fun. The Russian federation is
huge. It's the biggest country in the world. It's
almost two Canada's put together. Russia is
only the sixth biggest population with
8,993,000 people, well you do you know why?
HERE ARE SOME FUN THINGS YOU Might
NOT WANT TO TRY
For example in the winter Russians wear
bathing suits and men brake the ice and they
all have a splash into the ice cold water of a
lake. Also the Russians have a cure for the
sick just like the Native Americans, pray. Also
the Russians rub alcohol on their bodies
because when you do that the alcohol stays
on your body and burns to keep you warm.

Religion
Have you ever been to a church, well in
Russia it's different and I want to show
you how it started . Religion is when you
believe in a power or powers that are
greater then them self's and that is how
religion started. Many people that are in
a religion group use there own way to
worship or pray, but some people in the
same religion still pray in different ways.
Some religions include Catholicism,
Judaism and others. Other religions are
more based on how you live than what
your beliefs are. So if you believe in
superman, witches, ghosts, and many
more powers let me tell you a little secret
(that is not religion ). Sometimes there
are strict rules if you don't do something
right "ouch "you don't want to be that
person .

Food in Russia
Mmm smell the air of every restaurant in town,
smell the soup, the warm meat off the grill with
potatoes, ah boy I love this place. In Russia
usually there are three courses, it starts with fish
and meat salad then soup, then meat and
potatoes, finally it's time for sweet yummy cake
with tea or coffee. A lot of people or family's
dedicate there life to planting and farming for
more fresh food (so many people grow peppers).
Most families make homemade black rye bread,
but if you come to Russia you'll be stuffed with
soup . In Russia they mostly make soup every
where , restaurants, homes, soup , soup , soup.
One famous soup is Borsch ( beat and cabbage
soup ). Also a favorite vegetable is pickled
cucumbers . So you've heard of four and more
different foods so wouldn't you want to go to
Russia .
