From Russia with Love
Well here we are in Russia, we haven't been gassed yet, but we've only been on a train for one night. I kinda forgot to put in photos of St Petersburg but it isn't quite as nice as Moscow anyhoo. So far the Russians are MEAN. But we're plodding along nicely, I think Russians might have a problem with pancakes....they eat them ALL THE TIME!!! I never want to see one EVER AGAIN! and bye the way - I HAVEN'T HAD COFFEE IN A WEEK....
Sorry but I can't figure out how to rotate the pictures just yet, it was a challenge just to get them up at all! Believe it or not Russia is a strange place....for example, this is a picture of a shopping centre, u know, where you get ur bread and milk.....It used to be a palace - only the best will do...
This is me and Bren beside a really big bell in the Kremlin, need I say more....
Red Square with St Basils in the background and Lenin's Mausoleum all covered up by some big banner thingy for V day, we couldn't go into the centre cause there was a very stern looking policeman blocking our way, I had already been shouted at and whistled at (not in a good way) by a scary looking soldier earlier on so I think that was enough scaryness for one day
This is some of the lads in our group. They decided that it might be fun to dunk their heads in a waterfall, apparently near freezing weather just isn't cold enough for them...

They give you vodka and pancakes and you call them mean...?

Well thats true, but then again they try to push you under the subway cars....
By the way, it seems you have to order a shot of vodka with every beer.....
I do be liking the shopping centre! Makes poor 'ol Stephens Green look sad and depressed :(
PLEASE TRY AND AVOID ALL SHOUTING AND WHISTLING MEN WITH GUNS, pancakes are bad, guns are worse!!!
