I think you might enjoy Moscow, and you might even enjoy St. Petersburg more. I'd recommend visiting them at least once. I'll admit that the government there still makes it difficult, what with all their regulations and rules about announcing your presence to the police. But that's their business. My hunch is that their customs probably discourage tourists from my part of the world. And I predict this will change in the next few years. But then, I know that my country can be difficult in the same way.

I was feel the same when I was in Latvia, not very comfortable, I was just a tourist, from one of the nearest countries but I had a feeling that I'm some kind of intruder fot the citizens of Riga. I can't explain why I feel that this way, it's quite difficult. For opposite In Slovakia and Lithuania I feel great, wonderfull atmosphere, nice people

I understand. I have never visited the Baltic countries, even though I have many friends from those countries who now live in the U.S. I should go there some time.

Hey, Irene, you're bored in Moscow? I'm sorry. More shopping at GUM might help? Wandering around the Arbat? The Bolshoi? Oh well...then you must try New York City.

Red Square was more red and more square than I had expected. And it was more interesting too. Thanks, Avari.

Moscow is one place I have always wanted to visit. Thanks for a taste of it Gerald!

Make a plan, Jim. I wouldn't call it "fun", but I would say fascinating.

Is July a good time to be there?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, I think July is a good time. The weather was rather pleasant, though it did rain most days. Moscow is rather far north, and St. Petersburg even more so. This means that the weather is rather temperate in summer. August should also be good, but I hear that they've had a lot of rain in the past couple weeks. Oh well...just take an umbrella, or intact skin, which also turns water rather well.

Ah yes, St. Petersburg, how I would love to spend a few days in the Hermitage.
*daydreaming*

An apt title. It looks as though you caught it during some lovely weather.

I was lucky with the weather that day (for about 30 minutes) before it poured. And thanks!

Hey Jerry! You got much better weather than when I was there (how is it you travel at nicer times of the year). I was there in a November... hmm
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep, I'll admit I was lucky. But I should tell you that not more than a half hour later it was pouring giant trashcans full of rain.

I hope you enjoy the Russian series, Wayson. I'll admit that going to big cities isn't beautiful in the way visiting your part of the world is. But it's all fascinating to me.

As it should be, for now I'll chalk them up to future adventures and explore the "affordable" areas around my corner of the world. Again, great shot!

Hi Cammy! I did enjoy a couple days "vacation" in this place. But mostly I was working. I can see you scheming to get from ND to Moscow some day.
