🚒🔥 Time to “Fall Back”! 🔥🚒
Don’t forget — Daylight Saving Time ends tonight! ⏰
Set your clocks back one hour before you go to bed.
While you’re at it, it’s also the perfect time to:
✅ Check and replace batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
✅ Test your alarms to make sure they’re working properly
✅ Review your family’s fire escape plan

A quick check today could save a life tomorrow.

This week: Armchair travel to Russia, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia! A wonderful meal of Chicken Kiev, brazed cabbage, and Russian pastries was followed by videos and lots of information!
We visited St Basil cathedral, the Kremlin, a village in chilly Siberia, a Christmas market. We learned some history, words, folklore, and customs - like cutting an apple in half to find a lucky star shape that indicates a good new year!
