The two-month bear has arrived in one of the Vinnitsa hotels. The local business man picked him up on the road near the forest, but the forest home hasn’t accept him. He was not welcome neither in the local circus or the zoo: no meals for the zoo enemies.
The small bear was named Kesha, as informed Akkumulator of News. While the search of a new family takes place the bear stays in the hotel’s yard. A special open-air cage was built for him, but he only sleeps there and at the day time he is “working” as the hotel talisman  People come to have a look at him and provide some meals. As all small children he likes milk and sweets. After consulting the veterinary a special menu was prepared in the hotel restaurant.

2005-02-19 Turnovosti.com.ua Back to Top

Rules and have technical limitations. It was informed by Vladimir Galagpvets, the leader of the safety service of the Ministry of Emergency (ME) of the Zakarpatie region.
Except the problems with lifts, as ME informed, almost all the skiing routes do not correspond to the normal requirements: the dangerous places are not marked and the tourist bases have no any marking devices or information about the dangerous places on the route.
Another problem is connected with the equipment itself which is provided in the local hired places. Due to this situation a lot of emergency situations take place here.
Not less disasters take place among the skiers and snowboards due to a drunken state as well as to dare-devil stuff as it was marked in the ME. Because of the
extreme lovers more than 80 persons suffered, informed the ME


The Crimea is not so much visited in winter
2005-02-16 Turnovosti.com.ua Back to Top

The Crimea is anxious how to draw tourists in winter. As even the elite Crimea resorts this summer are hardly occuoied.
The tour operators and hotel hostesses are counting their losses. The new hotels presentation was not a great success. Now everybody is forecasting  the summer season.
Oktai Aliev, the expert in tourism, Russia: “The political non stability negatively reflects upon economy. But it is the temporal situation. The Crimea is rather perspective market. As for the winter period, much depends upon the companies and tour operators participating in this process”.
Who said that the South beach of the Crimea is not abroad? It is on the frontier line at least of two climate zones.
The cable line is the same as a helicopter but only not noisy. All together 7 minutes and  subtropics are substituted with a real winter: snow, frost – on the Ai-Petry plateau these days there is the contently operating mountain skiing resort. The cable line Miskhor-Ai-Petri itself is something that worth seeing side by side with such well known brands as the Field of tales, Nikitsky botanic garden,the palaces of the South Beach. If on the beach it is plus 10 degree – here it is up to – 30 degree. The mountain skiers were the first to discover this Ai-Petri plateau. They live in a company in the artificially made wagons.
Everythin here is hand-made: and the lifts and the houses in the village. There are four lines for the speed-up descend of different types of difficulty. There are no accidental people in mountains. Vitaly Snegurenko, the deputy director
Of the mountain club “Ai-Petri”: Extreme situations are quite often here: Snow-covered roads, unexpected snow-slips. The height is about one thousand two hundred meter above the sea level is according to the climate corresponds to the
Average level in Russia. As in Russia we have storms and frost up to minus 27  degree”.
To climb up the one and a half km it takes not less than one hour: sbow is up to kneels. But speed descent takes only minuts. And so – several times a dayEduard, extremal: “A lot of adrenalin, simply mad adrinalin. Only due to it we spend all holidays here.
To the empty beach of Partenit Vladimi Kravtcov comes for his portion of adrenalin. People calls him “walrus”, among friends he is the liver of winter swimming. He never stop surprising looking at the heat-lovers of his village people. Excersise here on the beach than the 15-minutes swimming. For him each diving is a special ritual . “I like to swim much more in winter. In summer -
You never experience such a pleasure but in winter – super. For me it’s like narcotic. You are never ill. Normal blood pressure”.
Ultra modern tatu on skin – the confirmation of the next win upon yourself: a new picture arrives upon the skin of the walrus after the next visit to a new water pool. His skin is like a traveler diary: Barentcevo Sea, the North Sea,
Baltik….. But the best place is the Black Sea, it is his native sea.
