Fantastic pics, where are we going next?
They do the lock thing here in Melbourne on the Southgate footbridge - not quite as pretty as the Moscow version though.

Church of Demitrius of the Spilled Blood. Great name eh.

Where Ivan "The Terrible" son Dimitry was murdered in 1591. They built the church on the spot where he died.

And she us justly rewarded by dinner of

Pelmeni stuffed with raindeer and wild boar.



Crab fritters with  paprika sauce.  I was wondering when we would see some paprika!



Loin of veal stacked on veggies.



Russian bakes fish and veggies.




Wonder if the wine is any good.
