I don't know who St Basil was (
Wikipedia) but I do know he has the most magnificent
Roald Dahl/
Quentin Blake 'church' named after him. Much like the
Interisland ferry between the two New Zealand islands (incorporating
Pelorus Jack), was the most amazingly exotic place in the world for a 12 year-old boy in Wales ... Russia was "so far away".
Going there was a dream (or itch) to be fullfilled and when I did, it was just as good as I'd hopped.
As is
Aotearoa.
Only Iceland to go!
