So here are some of my pictures from the regular tourist sites of Moscow. Even though I've done all this before I didn't have anything to do today so I figured what better way to spend an afternoon than in Red Square.
I think this is probably the most famous place in Russia.
A cool doorway at the back of St. Basil's.
I don't know why there are so many Chinese people here...I feel like they have somewhere else important to be these couple of weeks but seriously, the airport was full of Chinese people when I arrived and I haven't been able to get away since. Not that I don't like Chinese people and not that the people in this picture are even Chinese, but still.
The cool clock tower in the Kremlin.
Lenin's tomb. I've already done this and didn't feel the need to stand in a really long line just to go in again. It probably hasn't changed in the past 10 years, right?
It is so easy to pick Americans out in a crowd. I was on my own this afternoon but I made lots of new American friends who took plenty of pictures for me.
There is a plethora...

I was surprised by the number of Chinese as well. Then I realised that a certain percentage of them are actually Russian (speaking Russian, working in the stores etc.). I guess when you have two communist nations next door to each other you get some immigration.
Your pictures are so much better than mine. I didn't see blue sky (or temps above 55) the whole time!
