23.12.2005 AN HOUR ON THE ICE COSTS 1000 AMD
One of these days on the Swan’s Lake the opening ceremony of the open-air skating-rink took place. President R. Khocharian and the mayor of Yerevan Ervand Zakharian were also present at the ceremony. And we wanted to find out whether the skating rink was to work after the opening or not...
Today at about 11 o’clock in the morning we made sure that the skating rink works. And what is more, at the moment of our visit a number of schoolchildren were on the skating under the sounds of gentle music. We wondered how many people visited the rink since December 14.
As we have been informed by one of the workers more than 300 people nave visited the skating rink since the opening. And it turned out that skating on the skating rink is not free at all as it has been promised at the opening ceremony. It was announced that people had to pay only for the skates. But the whole matter is that an hour on the skating rink costs 1000 drams, for about $2,5. Whereas it seemed that the “ticket” was to have a symbolic cost at least in the first season. more... | | | | POSTCARD |

02.12.2005 NEW YEAR TREES
Although there is a whole month for the New Year and the Father Frost to come but Yerevan is little by little being involved into the atmosphere of the holiday. In particular, the first New Year trees appear in the street booths. With “biting” prices (10 000-15 000, even 20 000 drams), of course, but however... One thing cheers up: we are finally getting used to the custom of beautifying the celebration of the New Year with artificial trees. Nevertheless, judging bi the previous year and even by the present situation, in 2005-2006 only artificial trees will be put up for sale./Panorama.am/
