Best Eastern Hotel Belgrad Moscow

... bit bits of shredded beef, served with sour cream) and some traditional dark bread fried in garlic oil, like big crouton soldiers,and rather tasty. There we also met up with her friend Natasha who was over from Hungary for a few weeks, and we spent the evening chatting. It was great to properly meet some real Moscovites around our age and get their views on the place and great advice on what other places to check out whilst we're here (thanks Jim!)

... on the offers. We tried to find a hotel, but these too were impossible to find. We asked at a florists - one of the many 24 hour kiosks around the city - and a russian man came to our aid, standing in the road trying to flag one down. Two men approached and said they were taxi drivers, but their cars showed no license so again we declined. How would we make it back ...

... and St Basils Cathedral, which was magnificent when lit up. The next day Greg took us back to Red Square & the cathedral (we'd forgotten to take a camera the night before) and we went to a soviet era self serve diner for lunch. Milli wasn't feeling o well, so we went back home, Greg and I mucking around with Logic Pro on our Mac's & swapping DVD's, and later that night we went to 'avocado' one of the only vegetarian restaurants in the city. Today Milli still wasn't feeling ...

... closed on a public holiday intended to allow the people of Moscow to celebrate the city's 'birthday'. Our conclusion... you can celebrate the city you're just not allowed to see it! The Kremlin however, was open to 1000 'lucky' individuals per day. Saturday was our lucky day. The Kremlin was really interesting apart from being closed in places (there seemed to be a theme here). Pete concluded that there were lots ...

... from the experience quite a bit. Unfortunately, it was the same with all of the churches we went into. Lenin's Mausoleum houses Lenin's remains. He has been embalmed and the curious can view his body several days during the week. Michael attempted to see him but he took a shortcut. Unfortunately, Michael was then detained by the militsia for breach of protocol. A little bit scary. After much hand waving and discussion, the officer accepted a cigarette pack that ...

... were for the super-rich and included Bentley, Ferrari, Bvlgari, Prada and so on. Finally, we stopped for lunch in the famous GUM department store complex. The GUM looked a bit like an old palace and under the amazing glass ceiling wedding groups were posing for photos on some of the arching bridges. We walked out of the main entrance to the GUM and found ourselves in Red Square facing the huge red walls of the Kremlin and with St Basil's Cathedral on one side and the ...

... status of people in some sort of action. We visited about 4 or 5 stations and saw metro stations with chandeliers running the length of the corridor, stained glass masterpieces and marble for miles. The escalators are looooong as all the tunnels are a long way down. Purposely built that way so they could with stand war. Mac attack for breakfast/lunch with a coffee of course (surprisingly cheap), then stood in a line for 40 minutes for tickets to the inside of the Kremlin. The ...

... were a number of awards given out by WEVA so for the most part I got to understand who won the award, which company sponsored the award and also the acceptance speech - mind you some of these might as well have been in Russian given the thick French accents! Musical performances were scattered through the Opening Ceremony, the military band performed during the first third, we next were favoured by a quartet - accordion plus three stringed instruments ...

We arrived early in the morining in Moscow by train. We then transferred to subway and walked at 20 minutes to our hotel which was an army hotel run by the military. This place is used for military people who are traveling for work and some use it when on leave. Extra rooms are available for civilians and foreigners. The place was understandibly very basic, our room consisted of 2 twin beds, a place to hang your clothes, a small table and a sink. The toilets were ...
