From Russia with Love...

I drove home today and when I parked my car on the roof and stepped out of the car, I was surprised to see a mammoth yacht parked out in front of the house in Richardson Bay...right off our coast here in Sausalito.

Apparently, the yacht is named 'A', for Andrey and Aleksandra Melnichenko.  Andrey Melinchenko,  is a 38-year-old Russian businessman who made his money in banking, fertilizer and coal. Forbes magazine currently puts Melinchenko's net worth at $4.4 billion. Aleksandra, Melincheko's 31-year-old Serbian supermodel wife, apparently took over some of the yacht's design after the couple got married.

Here are a few links to news articles, and my photos....Hope you enjoy.  

A (no, not Andrey or Aleksandra.....it's me...Ash)
