Ronald Reagan - Visit in Presidential Library and Museum

As a large majority of you know very well I am an ignorant of history.
Of course I know some basic dates and facts form the past because I think people are obliged to know the answers for that kind of basic questions like: Where are we from? And why we can (or can not) exist in world shaped like this one here? Generally speaking our level of intelligence and our humanity too are also good reasons to meet some facts from the history (not always pleasant for us). And nowadays this history more often than in the past is common not only for adjacent nations but also for whole world community...The last one reason for me why it is sometimes worth keeping in touch with history is...you can visit places like this - Ronald Regan Presidential Library. You can go to this place when you have some spare time or you are interested in Cold War history. But I would like to under line this fact. I try to keep my mind clear and free of any historic and politic swamp... Don't even try to blend me in this thick treacle. :-)

Some facts from Simi Valley.

- You can board The Air Fore One 27000
( Statistic: Wingspan 145 feet 9 inches, Length 152 feet 11 inches, Cruising Speed: 540 nautical mph, Range: 6650 nautical miles, Service ceiling: 42000 feet),
- You can touch the Berlin Wall and tread lightly on the South Lawn,
- You can take a picture in the exact replica of the Oval Office,
- And get through the Cold War gallery with pictures from Poland,
- admire nice view of Simi Valley from the external terrace or through the Glazed Wall from inside of the building.
BTW Did you know that RR was a Movie Star?

Enjoy the pictures :-) and keep in mind Vodka Tasting Party :-) Yeah, it was great to meet you there!
