To the glory of God - we passed!translated

I realized that the religious procession had taken place and was a success already at 9.30, half an hour before the official start of the gathering. An endless sea of people walking from the Kitay-Gorod metro station. An endless crowd at the frames. Flags with the Savior. Countless home icons (last year there were few of them, but this time many, very many, thought to come with a home shrine).

A guy in the uniform of the “Kornilov” regiment of the Volunteer Army with a high-flying imperial insignia is walking in a printed step. Remembering the bewilderment of last year, when the flag of the Russian Empire, dating back to the imperial State Banner, was taken away at the entrance, I approached: “Take it off and carry it on yourself, and unfurl it outside the frames.” The Imperial flag was replaced by the Serbian banner.

Am văzut și eu cum anul trecut la intrare se tot certau pe imeperka aia. Bine că ai zis de varianta cu steagul sârbesc, e simplu și merge. Dar că au confiscat bannerul cu Noii Mucenici, chiar nu înțeleg – cu atâtea icoane de-acasă aduse, ar fi trebuit să-l lase.

Да, с имперкой в прошлом году реально мурыжили, я сам видел. А вот насчёт баннера с Новомучениками — обидно, потому что как раз в этом году икон домашних было море, люди явно готовились. Ты сам с каким-нибудь знакомым из прошлого года там пересекся?
