3. Zhenya’s Reply Dear Pat. It is good to hear from you. We have been waiting for you to call or write. Vladimir told us about you. We are sad to hear that he died. His time in the Gulag greatly weakened his heart. Aunt Valeria works at the dacha in the springtime and doesn't have a phone. I will tell her to call you immediately. If not just come to the city of Suzdal and go to the city market and ask where Valeria Mikhailovna lives. Everyone knows her here. Her address is Ulitsa Perestroychnyaya, dom 14. You should still call her once you get into town so she can have dinner ready. We are looking forward to meeting you! Sincerely, Zhenya Vorobyova OPTIONS 1.Reply to ZhenyaReply to Zhenya 2.Call ValeriaCall Valeria 3.ResearchResearch 4.Fly OutFly Out 5.HelpHelp Make sure you understand the directions before you fly out.
