Yesterday we went to Kolotskoe monastery with Monsieur Jan, who lives right in front of it. He made these pictures of us. Also some images in Borodino Museum. Merci Monsieur Jan!!












Another day at the office!












Volunteers at the monastery












High up in Kolotskoe bell tower











Napoleon won't even look at us












Soon in a theatre nearby!
Thanks to Monsieur Jan, a collectionner of Napoleonic artifacts, we got a fantastic rest in Kolotskoe. What great people Rusians are!!! It's also about time we thank the people from the Troitsk library & museum (Liudmilla x3 & Isabella), those from the Malojaroslavets Museum, artist Vladimir Ovsjinikov in Borovsk, artist Jevgueni Dolgatsjev in Mozjaisk and Jan Sergueijev in Kolotskoi. Since some people believe that we walk every kilometer in uniform, it's also time we post some pictures of us walking in a normal outfit. We tried to upload some images, but unfortunately this is Russia and not Belgium, so you folks will have to be happy with just this small text. Only know that we are in good health, good mental condition and eager to continue onto th Smolekaia road, although snow and frost have finally settled.

After a firm battle all have won or lost, but anyway we made friends with the enemy! We will meet these guys and girl in Belarus at the Berezina river. The weather will be quite different though! Today almost 15 C.
Puppet fun on the battlefield. Napoleon, Kutuzov, Joseph and Boris in good company!













Our first hot meal in 3 days, a good borsjt in Zjukov.

 

 
Seen from the other side, just before the borsjt was brought. Yes indeed... we wear the same smurf shirt!!

A few days ago on the set of a newborn belgian TV program called Café Corsari: World's smallest Grande Armée only a few minutes before being interviewed by Freek Braeckman. Tv is fun... but they have to broadcast it, which they didn't. 
GRRRRRR!!



World's smallest Grande Armée has given a farewell performance in Belgium. Thank you Manu Dumortier for this picture! Tomorrow in Moscow! WOW!!!
