Obama & Medvedev Nesting Dolls

Obama & Medvedev Nesting Dolls

Obama will visit Moscow on July 6-8 to meet with President Medvedev and Prime Minister Putin. So now if you walk through the Red Square and Kremlin areas or any tourist attractions or crafts markets Vernisazh in Izmailovo you can see the ubiquitous nesting doll with Obama on them and also the American flag! These nesting dolls called Matreshka are one of the national souvenirs of Russia and are hand made from wood and hand painted (cheap ones have photo copies on it).

PS: This picture was taken in an open area market near a stand with many Matreskas dolls, so because of sunlight it was quite hard to avoid a glare over heads of the presidents caused by reflection from laquered surfaces of nestling dolls.

With BEST Regards from Moscow,

Arthur is one of the kindest and most helpful people I have met. There is NO ONE I would rather have help me to resolve complex planning and schedule plans then him. I had to trust Arthur with thousands of dollars with nothing more than a promise he would handle complex business transactions for our family. Not only did he preform outstanding on these task but also saved us thousands of dollars with his skill and ability to communicate with people.

If you travel in Russia and need a guide, friend and skilled negotiator Arthur is your man. Not only that but he takes wonderful professional pictures as you travel. I would totally trust Arthur with any of my most treasured possessions............how many people can you say that about ? I don’t know about you, but I think they are few and far between.

I am happy to give you my telephone number (770) 844-0084 in the United States should you wish to confirm any information.

Thank you Arthur for helping us with everything.
