Nini Visits Sakhalin

My world-traveling 85-year-old grandmother, otherwise known as Nini, came to visit me for a few weeks.  Once she was over the horrible jet-lag associated with the 16 hour time difference from Houston, we ventured out into town and took some walks around our compound.  The weather in Sakhalin during her stay was unfortunately cold and wet, which is quite a change from the triple-digit temperatures she was experiencing back home in Texas.  We had a great time having her here....thanks, Nini for coming to visit!
