... day, while out for a walk, I rounded a corner and was right in front of St Basil's Cathedral. My apologies if there are too many photos of it on here, but it is so stunning, it doesn't look quite real, and just as colourful on the inside.<br>Have spent 2 days now just wandering and taking in the sights, am a bit tired to be honest :) <br>Think I'm ready to move on, which is a good thing, because train no. 2 the 'Rossiya' (the Trans-Siberian Express) is leaving at 21.25 tonight with me ...

... in the toilet. RM would allow nothing but the best for her children though. We were ushered off to first class and thrust into the shower compartment with a beaming smile. It was heaven. Thank you RM. Spasiba. Shortly after our shower there was a brief stop for us to stretch our legs at a station. Other Westerners from the train looked on with green envy and whispered inquisitively to one another. They didn't have the<br>connections we had...

... a collection of the cheesiest European acts almost like American Idol on acid! Well at least it will keep me entertained before my flight home - I am leaving the hostel just before 4am for my 7am flight, sleep will have to wait till the flight! Stay tuned for the next adventure to New York and Peru, thanks for following along on my travels. Yours truly Cora the Explorer

... jossa on ymparivuorokautinen vartiointi. Vartija tulikin meita vastaan eilen aamulla heti kun etsimme asuntoa ja kyseli etta mitas te taalla pyoritte. Naytettiin osoitetta ja sanottiin etta Dericia etsimme ja heti alkoi palvelu pelata, vartija saattoi hissiin ja toivotteli hyvat paivanjatkot :) Venahtipa teksti pitakaksi. Toivottavasti jaksoitte lukea. Nyt ostamaan evaita pitkalle junamatkalle ja kaydaan nappaamaan jostain katukojusta jotain lounasta.

A wonderful summer evening. Riga Railway Station. Bus. Backpacks. <br>Somewhere in Riga Andrew was waiting for us.<br>1-2-3-go! <br>

... man also came over and started talking. One of the questions he asked me was if I remember the 1972 series. We had been talking a bit about hockey when he asked this. What else do Canadians and Russians end up talking about?? I was laughing to myself when he asked this because of a certain TV commercial I remember from several years ago. Some of you in Canada may remember it. It takes place in a nightclub in Moscow or somewhere in Russia and a Russia man orders a Canadian ...

... posto e' davvero incredibile e trasuda storia. Mosca e' davvero diversa da San Pietroburgo, che e' un po' piu' europea. A proposito, l'ho lasciata il primo maggio tra festeggiamenti vari, a cui si sono aggiunti quelli per la squadra locale, lo Zenit, che aveva appena battuto il Bayern Monaco nella semifinale di coppa Uefa. Vi lascio immaginare il delirio per le strade e la fatica che ho fatto a raggiungere la stazione! A ...

... 1,80 Dollar. Außer dieser einer grauen Halle mit Buffet, Festsaal und 15 Autos gibt es nur noch Betonsäule in der Erde, ein halb fertiges Schornstein und jede Menge Matsch. Und eigentlich geht die Fabrik erst in zwei Jahren in Betrieb. Egal - die Wahl ist am Sonntag. Zwei Stunden später meldet eine Moskauer Radiostation: Das deutsche Autokonzern hat in Russland seine Produktion begonnen. Das Radio gehört zum Gazprom. Die teuerste Wahlkampfveranstaltung der Woche geht zu Ende.

... how frustrating it is you will still need to do the bloc 3-4-5 shuffle if you want your train tickets in the end. It was now 7:30pm and we ended up at a little local restaurant down the street for dinner. Note: just because an establishment has an English menu that is no guarantee that they will be able to take your order. After playing pictionary and charades to describe the dishes we hoped to eat we were pleasantly ...

... table. No shower, but the bathroom was clean (it was common for all the peple in the same wagon) and we have air condition. The tour girls were in the same room and the two boys where in the next room sharing space with Basil, a Russian military guy. We had dinner and that night I spoke a lot with you ;-) This first night I could´t sleep well, too many noise and movement ...
