Victory Park



































































Victory Park is small park in Atyrau, Kazakhstan with old war machines and a few statues to symbolize Victory Day which is held every May 9th. The day is honored for the capitulation or treaty between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union during the Second World War in 1945.
The boys liked to look at all the tanks, cannons, and airplanes. Of course they wanted to touch everything and go inside the plane. The park is located close to the pedestrian bridge which I took a picture of with the boys. There are also many benches to sit on and would be a good spot for a picnic if it wasn't 100 degrees outside.

If it makes you feel better it was 103 in Houston yesterday and will be in triple digits the rest of the week! Sounds like you guys are keeping busy and having some great experiences!
