Long trip ends in Russia with hard lessons for all
Judy Dixon, wife of Mayor James Dixon, recalls the Dickson to Norilsk journey. The group bids farewell at the airport amid gifts, tears, and a TV station Q and A. In Moscow and Norilsk they describe perestroika mood, private dining, and kindness. The diary notes contrast between Dickson and Soviet life and hopes to share with the world.
