Never one to miss a chance to go to WaterWorld and use his unlimited pass, when Austin discovered that our friends were going, he had to go too.

The group out for a day of fun.  Austin, Tatiana's daughter Kate, Sabrina's daughter Marina, Sabrina, Sabrina's youngest daughter, our family friend Tatiana, and her daughter Jessica.

After a hard day working at the flower shop, Jordan brought some extra flowers for Tatiana.

In appreciation, Tatiana gave Jordan a big hug and from the expression on his face, Jordan liked it!

Beau and Tatiana's daughter Jessica in a quiet moment.  It is a good thing my camera only requires 1/60th of a second for a photo because that is just about how long Jessica can stay still.

Tatiana is from St. Petersburg and married Beau about five years ago.  She has been a great help in my understanding of Russian culture and is a good friend.

Rachel, Daniella, & Hillary visit Austin and me.  After I made a large breakfast of French toast, bacon, peaches, and Eggs Victoria, we visited the Denio Market about a half hour drive away in Roseville.  The market is over 50 years old and covers over 35 hectares. 

Hillary is a veterinarian professor at a nearby university.  Of great interest to Jordan, who wants to be a vet.  Hillary is British-American.

The market is very similar to Russian markets.  Denio's has around 1,200 independent vendors with all kinds of products.

This photo is in the produce section.  Almost all produce vendors today are Russian émigrés.  10 years ago they were nearly all Mexican.

Denio's is only open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  Unlike in Russia, few Americans use such markets.
