moscow trip

I actually have so much to say about the days that B was here. Just don't know where to start! Tired of me saying it was the most amazing 12 days? Then don't read this cos I'll just be going on and on. Every perfect moment. We did fight alot but clearly that was only for attention seeking on both parts cause within a few minutes we'd be holding the other's hand again and going all soft and mushy.. Main thing is, at the end of the day, when we would go to bed, we'd always sleep happy.. and most of the time satisfied =p horh B ;p mwahx. I think B got to see most of what she wanted to except for the Armory Museum. Think writing bout that here might piss her off again because of a certain incident but it's worth mentioning. For 3 days we wanted to go to the Red Square and the Kremlin but bladdy hell there would always be something holding us back. On the first day it was fully enclosed with old people holding communist flags.. I don't know what's that about. So we had to go through every passway just to find our way to the Kremlin museum. On the 2nd day, it was again closed with people wearing weirdly coloured costumes and dancing around, I don't even wanna know what's that for. And the 3rd day we managed to get to the Red Square but couldn't go into the Armory Museum. That would explain why baby would be so pissed.


We went extra early on that day just to purchase the tickets and to wait in line for the museum cause it only allowed visitors at certain hours. So off we went. Lined up in the blazing sun, and when we reached our turn, I asked for student tickets and they didnt' want to give it because apparently B's International Student card is not valid. Bladdy fuck nuts assholic shit heads. It was clearly the ISIC card that we showed them and the only difference between B's card and the one they wanted was that B's was an extra. It was suppose to for more benifits and this bitch of a Russian can't bladdy understand anything. B got so pissed that she refused to purchase the normal tickets and before leaving the counter she bend down and just shouted at her, "Do You Know You're A Bitch?". Quite amusing if you think about it now but at that time all I could do was just agree. She made B cry.. I know how frustrating it must have been. But knowing B she'll be ok. And she way after a few mins of coaxing and hugs and ice cream of course, B was ok again.





Took pic of this guy while we were going to Red Square. Amazing how Russians can sleep anywhere anytime. Ah... It's not like Russians care about anything but themselves. Manners, discipline and hygiene never entered their minds.


Not sure which Cathedral this was. But it sure was a cure for sore eyes looking at it..



We weren't suppose to take pics inside the Cathedrals.Which made me want to even more.. So I did... hehe

It was really nice with paintings all over.. Even the ceilings.. Had even more fun taking illegal pictures of it all.. such a rebel.. tsk.. =p


And this is of course the ever popular St. Basil's which B took So many pics of.. It just looks like a giant ice cream parlor laaa... have to admit though.. it does look kinda enticing..

To cheer her up,I told B that at least we would be able to enter Red Square like she wanted to. She really got excited over it and suggested we spend the whole day there, and I in return gave her a quizzical look. For those who have not been there, when you do you will know why I gave her the look I did. It's basically a square, that's red.. with St. Basil's at the end, kremlin and lenin's at the right, GUM at your left and a red building which i'm not really sure what it is at your back. That's it! We spent bout an hour there then went off to MuMu to eat cheesecake. B's choice. Went to Kievskaya to find for a Thai Restaurant B's been raving about. Baan Thai! Took us a friggin long time to find that place but damn it was worth it. Food was fantastic and the atmosphere and service were top notch.

One thing apart from the main reason why I'm glad B came is that I got to explore all these new places; buildings, musuems, restaurants.... Thank you for everything baby.. me love you! mwahx..
