Join Totoro the Traveller visiting Veliky Novgorod, one of the oldest cities of Russia. Look at the impregnable walls of Kremlin and take a peek what’s inside there!
*** Russia is the largest country in the world and it offers so much to see & explore. My Instagram followers know that I am history & architecture fan, and so trip to one of the oldest cities of the country (first mention dates back to 859 year!) sounded like a great idea.
I’m sure you have heard word “Kremlin”, but internationally it is used mostly to identify Moscow and russian government, as that’s where president’s office is located in Moscow. The thing is that this word means citadel, a fortified complex in Russian towns. Veliky Novgorod (Novgorod the Great) has its own kremlin, and that’s where I directed my paws to upon arrival (0:28). Inside, I felt like I travelled in time: amazing architecture with the jewel - St Sophia Cathedral (dd. 1050) (0:50), towers, bells, all breathing history (especially when excursion passed by with a guide that was dressed in some medieval clothes and spoke very beautifully (1:21)). I was really impressed by monument “Millennium of the Russian Statehood” (1:41): it shows important people and events that made the most impact on Russian history. Spent quite a time watching all the tiny details of this masterpiece. I’ve recognized Peter the Great (2:00), remember the one who created St Petersburg and its amazing suburb Peterhof? If you don't check here:
Out of the Kremlin, I visited impressive Victory monument dedicated to victory of the Soviet Union over the fascist invaders (2:28) and had a look at Yaroslav's Courtyard (0:07), former market place that dates back to 12 century. I was surprised to learn that Novgorod was one of the Hansa League cities back in time (as well as Stockholm, Tallinn, Bremen, Gdansk, Cologne, Bruges, London, Bergen and others), beautiful fountain was opened in 2009. Loved the design with mosaic emblems (0:09). I wish I could spend more time in this city and fly the heart balloon (2:18) or take a river cruise (0:22).
Visit to cities like Novgorod is a throwback to old times, unique experience I’d wish everyone to have!

July 30th, 2011 MN Wall Clouds
Link to Chase Log:
Wall clouds galore on this chase day through central Minnesota! We followed a supercell from Parkers Prairie, MN to Belgrade, MN. Through the duration this storm produced several rotating wall clouds and a brief funnel. There were a couple of times that I thought this storm was close to dropping a tornado, but it just couldn't do it.
