He is alwaysСреди русских бытует выражение о том, что нечего ждать у моря погоды, потому что её долго не дождёшься. А вот в Малых Карпатах иначе. С утра моросил промозглый дождь, тучи бродили по облакам в Братиславском небе. Мы запланировали с вечера поехать на Славин курган, но как говорится, погода не климатила. Все сидели, как на иголках, каждую минуту заглядывая в телефоны-ай фоны, чтобы справиться о прогнозе или смотрели на телеэкран , чтобы узнать новую сводку погоды. Всё дело застопорилось на солнышке. И вот после обеда приблизительно в 2-31 оно, красное солнышко-желанное наше!, выглянуло. Настроение у всех мгновенно улучшилось, одетые по-походному давно, теперь мы скоренько вскочили в машину и помчались к Славину Кургану, к братцам и сёстрам-славянам, захороненным на высоком холме. Слева моё фото букета из свежих цветов, положенных кем-то  у ног огромной статуи Воина-Освободителя в знак уважения к солдатам, большим труженикам войны. Внизу я привожу наше видео об этом моменте, когда Геннадий был с нами, когда мы шутили и понимали друг друга: ведь мы все принадлежали тому времени. Он всегда был и остаётся с нами.

But here, in Maly Karpaty everything is not so. It was drizzling rain in the morning in Bratislava, the sky was overcast. We were sitting as if on the needles: every minute we were looking for weather forecast on our i-phones, checking with news on TV. We planned beforehand to go to Bratislava to visit Slavin Hill. Dressed up in traveling costumes, just what we lacked was sunshine. Only in the afternoon around 2-31 the sun came out. Our spirits lifted up, we jumped in the car and were gone. Hello, brothers and sisters on Slavin Hill, we are happy to greet you. To the left my photo from there with the bucket of fresh flowers left by somebody between the feet of the huge statue of a soldier-warrior, hard worker of the war time. And below is the link of our video with Gennadiy, when we joked around and had a good time. He is always with us.
