Love Anastasia with the field glasses . It's fun seeing  Olga playing at  being a solder at attention in the 2nd one of the girls on "the Tsar's mound" . I think that is her Aunt Irene to her left

Can you tell me what was this Tsar mound with chairs... ? They were looking at the military ?

Yes it was a quite high, man made hill where the Imperial Family, and guests viewed the military reviews...you can see it was quite windy up there, but at least not as dusty and had  a great view naturally . It's interesting because one of the photos was taken on top on the same level as the girls and the other seems to be taken a bit below...there were stairs  to go up and down

Oh, how I wish that the last one was bigger... :( It looks like they're all smiling happily and laughing.  Who is that lady in the 3rd photo? She looks so familiar, but I can't place her.  ??? (by the way, the girls in that photo are Olga and Maria, not Olga and Tatiana.)

Maybe Queen Marie of Romania?

The admin from tumblr site doesn't seem to be very concerned about copyright. So feel free to remove pictures if necessary...

Marvelous! Olga looks very worn out...interesting how a lot of the hospital photos never show her stress, but this one does, a little...

Really? In fact Tatiana also shows a rather sad face at this pic. I think it's just a casual photo and it caught them with a neutral facial expression that could be judged as disgraceful .
