Hey all,
We arrived in Moscow yesterday afternoon after four nights on the train. Our hostel does in fact have internet, so I'm sure there'll be more posts soon.
The train was remarkably comfortable, though the food situation was rather dire. I am never eating 2-minute noodles again. We saw some beautiful countryside, including a few hours travelling next to Lake Baikal, which is definitely something that needs to be seen to be believed.
Moscow so far has been pretty awesome, though so much more expensive than we expected. Our breakfast coffees were about AU$7 each, though it was worth it for the first cup of good coffee since we left home.
We did all the touristy stuff today: the souvenir market, Red Square, the Kremlin and a Vodka museum. I have an awesome hat now, there will definitely be some photos of that soon. We didn't get to see Lenin though, he's only open weekdays and till 1pm Sundays, so we might have to go see him tomorrow.
Well, until we have some photos ready to post, I'll leave things there.
N.

Just had the pics of the Great Wall running on my computer. Fantastic sight.
Great pictures. Lovely costumes at the show. Looks like everyone drinks beer! Up-selling again, chips with everything!
