Learn to like it, because that's what you're gonna be drinking.

& so, it's real easy to get blackout-drunk, real fast. & I live in a resort / party town, & still....

So I guess girls should be especially careful.
Some Russian girls have a habit of getting blotto at clubs.

There's a lot of smallish beer breweries, although a lot of them are in former CCCP countries.

There's also such a thing as Russian Champaign (or whatever you want to call it when it isn't FROM Champaign) but it isn't especially good, comparable to a basic American brand. Some gangsters bought my table a couple bottles one night at a club, that was kinda cool.

Ok, this is not a cultural tip exactly. But it's one of my favorite Eburg photos. I referred to this small motor boat on a trailer behind a car on my Eburg mainpage. Here it is, it was the only multiple-person boat I saw in Eburg.

playing chess

One of the things people do in Ekaterinburg is playing chess in the open air. Picture was taken along the central lake of the city.
