This weekend I spent in Arhyz,
western mountainous area in Caucasus.
This region contains green,
covered by pine-trees and beech-trees forests mounts and hills, reminding Italy and Bulgaria.
Also, it has vast areas of
rocky mountains

Icy lakes
and green rivers. This is
Zelenchuk river.
The root the this name means
“green”
Strong, wide and wild;
its color contains both sky blue and emerald-green shades
…like the color of my eyes…
The road to Arhyz is in very
good condition.
You can race there, at 100-140 km at curves, as there
are no cars on weekends there.
This time the only obstacle on
the road were
herds of horses and
cows
Shepherds are
taking them
on alpine pastures
for the the summer period.
Pine trees
and wild flowers
Thyme in the wild
are emanating incredible smells
of paradise, health and wild love…
This is wild geranium
Several years ago I planted
several roots in my garden
Are’t they beautiful in my
favorable flowerbed?
Arhyz is rich in berries
Local population prepares all
sorts of jams with berries
This green marmalade
is made of young and soft pine cones. They give you power
and best immunity
This is the
new ski resort in Arhyz.
It had been
built for two years under the supervision of Vladimir Putin,
President of Russian Federation
On the way
home I stopped at wild poppies fields
Several minutes of staying there, took all fatigue away
After hours of driving from this beautiful land.
How did you
spend your weekend?
With lovely
wishes,
Natalia Levis-Fox
