Robin in Moscow!

Hey up folks

Yes, here's Robin with Moscow behind him - as taken last Saturday morning from my hotel room.

Sadly, I was only in Moscow for 16 hours so I didn't get to take his picture in Red Square, but I've got plenty more that I've taken in St Petersburg (we were there for longer).

Moscow is a weird place - seemingly built on sex, money and alochol. You'd see couples walking down the street drinking beer at 10am and our (nice) hotel was full of prostitutes and a pretty seedy strip bar. Weird place. A bit in-your-face for my liking (although, as I say, we weren't really there long enough to see the nicer side of it). St Petersburg pictures to come...

Ditto, depending on what exactly you do (which, as long as it's not training, would be appealing right now). ;)

Only 16 hours? That's the longest (distance) short business trip I've ever heard of. I hope you had time in St. Petersburg to catch your breath!

Wow, Russia looks kind of like Ohio in the spring - LOL! For some reason I expected it to look, well, colder!
