Trans-Siberian Hostel Moscow

... later we arrived in the Russian capital. A relatively simple trip to the hotel led us to relax for a few hours and then head into Moscow to visit Red Square and St Basils Cathedral. This ornate colourful structure glitters in the sun and I think is the best feature of the Square which wasn't as big as I had imagined and is now dominated by a shopping mall!

The next day we decided on a trip actually into the Kremlin area ...

One week left in Moscow and we've still got things to do. Including going on a boat tour, visiting St Petersburg for a day and going to the circus. Meanwhile, we returned to the park on the Friday to do some fire. Only to find that the whole park was ablaze with hundreds of Russians gathered taking part in all sorts of activities. We found the sword fighting especially amusing. We meekly sat in a little corner somewhere as Peter fathomed the courage to perform, and as we ...

Je debarque a 5h du matin, la pension ou j'ai reserve n'ouvrant qu'a 11h, je laisse mon sac a dos a la consigne de la gare, a cote d'un type qui dort dans son urine, puis j'achete mon billet pour Nijni-Novgorod, tout seul comme un grand, a une guichetiere qui ne parle que russe, grace a un papier prepare, par moi-meme, a l'avance, en cyrillique (que maintenent, je maitrise presque, ce qui veut dire que je peux lire le russe, sans rien n'y comprendre). Quand, je sors de la ...

... in 2 or 3 hours and finish before you get too worn out. We then had a rest in the park beside the Kremlin before heading to the metro to take in some of the "underground art". Several of the metro stations (most of them on the ring line) are built more like banquet halls than metro stations with marble tiles and columns, mosaics, ceiling frescos and monuments (all depicting good soviet themes or important victories). It's also interesting that the central ...

... then Yulia took us back to the train station on the Metro. Thank goodness we had a guide. She lives there for school, and still had to use a map to figure out which way to go. On the train ride back, we had seats in an open car, which was like having compartments of 4 without doors, then little sections for 2 across the isle. At least this time, we were all together. I slept like a rock until we got back to St. Petersburg at 6:00 am, then took the Metro back to our dorm and ...

... We eventually got Belle registered and headed upstairs to relax for a little while. After Belle had settled in to room 845, we decided to head out for some dinner. We first checked out what the restaurants the Hotel had to offer but nothing looked particularly inviting. On the way to the Hotel from the Metro station we had passed several food vans with interesting looking local foodstuffs, so we decided to brave the cold again and headed back ...

... course arrived, but I don't remember what it was, or even eating it. We polished the evening off with more vodka before moving to another bar for some beer. I don't remember too much about this place, but we got home at some point and I managed to get into my top bunk without breaking my neck. Needless to say I wasn't kept awake too long by my fellow guests this time. The following morning I felt worse than I have done in years. I don't know how these Russians cope ...
