I was also surprised at the condidtion of the large cities, especially in region. In a city of 600,00 there was no drinkable water when we were there for trip 2. That was shocking. I think the standard of living was overall shocking.
Equeally as shocking was the condition of Moscow. But in a totally different way. We were shocked at how "Westerized" Moscow was. Parts of the city looked like Times Square there was so much neon.
