Perhaps should I someday end up in a well known Russian enclave like Long Island's Brighton Beach I might stumble across some. We've got a couple of old Russian communities here in Alaska though I can't say if "old" Russians favor sour cherry juice. Guess I'll have to make the 500 mile drive down there and find out one a these daze... Additionally, I look forward to checking out your blog. Looks like my kind of destinations (BTW, Bora Bora was the first overseas locale I ever visited - way back in 1981 in First Class via an ID75 reduced rate ticket on Air New Zealand and Air Polynesie). Bora Bora was still pretty Bora Bora back then. These days... less so. Alas, western tourists are like the cultural terrorists of the world and Bora Bora has been bombed - at least compared to 1981. Next time I'm headed to Mangareva or Rurutu...
