Hi, Natasha. I wanted to reply immediately to your letter, but recently I had a lot of work. Not enough time to carry out their plans. We have already come spring. The street is warm and sunny all day. Today, April 12, in Russia celebrate the International Day of Cosmonautics. This day is called the day of space, because it is 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin made the world's first space flight. My friends and I decided that day to visit the Museum of Cosmonautics in Kaluga. There's so much fun, we learned a lot and were very pleased. And the weather is London? How do you celebrate the day of space? And with whom?
