Thor, crazy busy is good, given the alternative of no busy!

Right after WWII, the Russians evicted the ethnic Germans and forcibly relocated Russians (from Georgia and the Ukraine, I believe) to Konigsberg.

Konigsberg is now open to everyone and gets a lot of tourists. The Russians are not happy living there, they want to go to their ancestral homes, and some Germans would just as soon move back to Konigsberg. It will be interesting. National Geographic had a nice article a few years ago.
