... basin in it and surprisingly comfortable bunks which made the 20 hour overnight journey to Moscow pretty bearable. The border control at Belarus was slightly intimidating, but fine, and it was interesting to see how the change the wheels at the border as Poland the Russian Federation have different gauges. <br> <br>Arrived in Moscow around 10am Poland time, 1pm Moscow time and were rather pleased that we managed to ...

... fram blant russiske metro-stasjoner og fordømt lite engelsk skilting på egen hånd. Kremlin skinner i solen. Til min store begeistring tog jeg våren med meg til Moskva, snøen har rast fra taket og isen har smeltet om dagen siden jeg kom hit. Jeg bestemmer meg for å besøke "The Armory" inni Kremlin. Ved innpassering til festningsmurene står en vakt og en metallportal. Jeg legger fra meg kameravesken og går igjennom ...

Red Square itself is paved with cobble stones which make for uncomfortable walking.

We later returned to Red Square after dark (i.e. after 11pm) and were stunned by how beautiful it looked with the walls, towers, Cathedral and even GUM all lit up. The following day was also wet and cold, so we took the opportunity to do a tour of some of ...

... It only partially opened to the public again in 1955, 2 years after Stalin's death. Trinity Tower is what you walk under to enter and Napoleon marched in triumph through this same tower when he entered the Kremlin in 1812. There are a couple of palaces and the state Armoury which is a museum. There are various beautiful cathedrals with frescoes paintings inside. The bell tower was the tallest building in Moscow in 1600. Outside the Bell Tower is the enormous Tsar bell. The ...

... One song described he life of a Muscovite who used to drive a horse drawn tram in Moscow. With the establishment of the Metro in the 1930's, the horse drawn trams died out and the former tram driver now had to catch the Metro so that he could go and be with his horse. The opening ceremony over, I headed back out into the cold night and onto the metro to head back to the Cosmos. Belle arrives tomorrow afternoon and I am looking forward to her catching up with me.

... of church websites. We also met with an official in the Zelenograd city government. He heads a new municipal department and shared with Pavel and us the mission of his area of oversight. We shared with him the sister city program Tulsa and Zelenograd embarked on in the early 1990s before he came here as well as the 13-year relationship between the two churches. All of us discussed how the 3 entities (Kirk, Zelenograd church, and municipal government) could work ...
