Скажите, пожалуйста, вы не знаете, как добраться до поселка Лебяжье?

До Лебяжьего? Как не знать? Конечно знаю. Значит так.

Поезжайте по этой дороге на юг, через поле.

А когда переедете реку, увидите небольшую деревеньку.

Повернете направо, проедете озеро, и как раз попадете в Лебяжье.

А как далеко это? Сколько километров примерно?

До реки километров восемь-девять. И оттуда до поселка тоже километров восемь.

Спасибо вам большое.

Please tell me, do you know how to get to the village of Lebyazhye? To Lebyazhye? How can you not know? Of course I do. So that's it. Follow this road south, across the field. And when you cross the river, you will see a small village. Turn right, pass the lake, and you’ll just end up in Lebyazhye. How far is it? How many kilometers approximately? The river is about eight or nine kilometers away. And from there it’s also about eight kilometers to the village. Thank you very much.
