Day 7: From Russia, With Love

We arrived into Moscow just after midday yesterday and took the extremely grand Moscow Metro across the centre to this huge apartment, shared by  two arty Frenchies; an architect from Holland; an extremely manipulative black fluffy cat; and our host, a Russian lawyer something or other, who has yet to materialise…

After a few cups of tea, we took a gentle stroll back towards the centre, crossing 2 bridges, and arrived at Red Square, St Basil's Cathedral and of course the Kremlin.

Soon after my 257th photo, we came to the realisation that we were actually completely and utterly pooped. So we headed home, only stopping for some traditional Russian cuisine on the way:

Despite our best efforts to "get an early night", most of the residents got home around 10pm (and we were waiting for our washing to finish spinning), so we got to bed just before midnight. And our well laid plans for exploring some of the Moscow sights today has turned into... Well, I'm still in bed, and it's almost 1pm.

It is our #honeyschmoon though.. Aren't you meant to spend all day in bed and never see the sights?

We board the actual Trans-Siberian train tonight at 23.45! Exciting times..!!
