Welcome to Moskow!



...5:30 ...early morning...after 30 hours spent in train...Moskow...huge, great and a bit complicated at first side capital's subway...meeting with Vic at the bus station...MC's apartment... in 3 words: "Welcome to Moskow!"
...Interesting thing that astonish me is that from my first words with Vic he asked me to speak russian with him, not romanian or even english, he explanied me that it is for my safety because russians don't really like foreigners and another reason is that police, called here "militzia" may stop me on the street and ask for my documents and easily find a reason to fine me....so all day in town, outside the appartment we spoke in russian.
This morning after a cup of tea and an hour of sleep we started with drawing a map of places to visit in
Moskow....but unfortunately the rain washed away our plans and we decided to go to the biggest shop for children, in the center called "Children's world" where I would like to buy all toys, dolls and games even if I am not a cild anymore. The amasing thing is that there I sow how a small boys and girls behaves as adults when choose clothes or toys...and already have shopping mania:P
I was like a Japanese in Moskow taking pictures even during a horrible rain...poor Vic, because of me he get a cold. We walked around 2-3 hours during the
rain, having no umbrella and being wet almost to... underwears...ooops!
In the fast food(in Russia it is difficult to find one, it is not so popular here)we ate "Kartoshka", russian dish(a potatoe filled with different salads, meat or fish) and at MC app. some "vareniki"(something like romanian coltzunash)...but surprise, here this dish is prepared not with "branza", as we expected it to be, but with sweet cheese! Tasteful:)
The part of Moskow, sector where MC appartment is, can be compared to Timisoara ...and there are many such sectors in Moskow, so just try to imagine how huge this capital is!
People from MC were very nice to me.

P.S. they have a red "carpet" in front of the app.door to welcome people:D!
....what else about Moskow ... people here usually spend at least 3 hours per day to get to work and back home and in subway train I have seen only sleeping and tired faces....
It is really a great town and you have to see a lot here but for me it seems to be too crowded, too grey (maybe because of rain) and very oppressive I would never live in a town such as Moskow for no money in the world, but I would like to visit it again and again and again for infinite times!

I like it:D!
