Well, it has been 2 weeks since I came back from Moscow.
Boy, procrastinate is definitely my middle name!
The night before we left, we stopped by at McD's first, just for no purpose. On one hand we were excited as this is our 1st trip together and our very first trip to celebrate NY in Moscow, but on the other hand we were sad as our 1/4th wouldn't be able to come along - Bestie D.
Finally it snowed! I was waiting so long for you to come!
Bestie D did great in hiding her sad face
Our train left at 2215 and we're bound to Moscow at 0630. We took "plus cart" because we needed a good rest, as we will be walking around Moscow for the whole day (and night) on the next day, but, us being us, we just can't stop talking, joking around, laughing at every small matter possible and as you've expected, of course, noisy...
Who says laughing mute is easy?
Then when everybody else on board was sleeping (and so were us, supposedly)...
One was nibbling on to KitKat
One was having a sweet talk on the phone
and One was just so bored she had to snap all these pics!
Eventually we all did sleep and the next thing in the morning we knew was, greeted Good Morning by Kremlin.
Moscow never sleeps
Freshened up in Mcd's and waited there for a good 2hours, just for the sun to come out.
All fresh and ready to go!
Finally, it was bright enough for a winter day, so we went out for a stroll along Kremlin and snapped pictures..
Kremlin
Labyrinth
Bolshoi Theatre
Kremlin Museum
After a loooooong stroll along Kremlin, we walked our way thourgh to Red Square. Lucky we were that morning, we manage to see the guard-changing process!
Goofing around at the Red Building
Statue of Marshall G.K.Zhukov
Lenin's Masoleum
Borovitskaya Tower
The candy castle - St. Basil Cathedral
Though I wore 4 layer of outfits, (enough to stand Moscow's weather, so I thought), but after 60mins being there I had to hold up a white flag. Besides, many Caucasian tourists were asking to take pictures with us because they thought one of my friends is Juhi Chawla *lol*.
So, we headed to GUM (read : goom), which is one of the famous high-class shopping complex in Moscow.
Of course we went there just to get warm, not shopping!
poor hungry kid went to sleep instead
Woke up as they decided to move on to New Arbat St. for Chilli's.
(we don't have Chilli's in Kursk, so, pardon me for being hyped about it)
the main reason
dah nak exit pon masih craving
Later we headed to the famous Old Arbat street. Even I had been there trice, but I still can't get enough of it. Besides, my two besties haven't been there yet...
TO BE CONTINUED...
SEE YOU LATER IN OLD ARBAT :-)
