We arrived into Moscow early afternoon, was picked up by our driver and to our hotel, where we will meet our G adventures tour group.
On the way our driver was pointing out the sights and speaking to us in Russian, we had a few near misses, he then got pulled over by the police.
Needless to say that I was happy when we arrived to our hotel.
Our hotel reminded me of a Las Vegas hotel, it was called Vega, good if you are a parramatta supporter, decore was blue and yellow.
In the afternoon we just explored our surroundings.
Red Square
Inside the Kremlin, means fortress.
Three churches inside the Kremlin.
This bell weighs 800tons and has never rung, as you can see part of it broke, when fired.
Russian Orthodox Church in red square.
The famous horse fountain, near the Kremlin and shopping centre.
St Basil's in Moscow.
We enjoyed Moscow and our tour of the Kremlin, Red Square and Gorky Park, tomorrow we depart for Suzdal by coach, 290 kms, where we will spend two days, before boarding our train for the Transiberian railway.
