March 17: Men Drinking
Several men stand outside of this small grocery store drinking (vodka, beer), smoking and talking. I have seen them start to gather as early as 10:00 AM and the crowd will grow larger at around 6:00 PM. There is a well-used bus stop located in the front of this grocery store (in front of the tomato) about 50 feet away; therefore, the sidewalk in front of the store has a lot of foot traffic. I have never worried about my safety as I have walked by the men drinking and no one has called out to me.
Oh, no. They will not bother you.
ReplyDeleteMy kids used to count public drunks in Moscow. Sad, but true. No one ever, EVER behaved inappropriately . . . other than being, oh, passed out in the park.
