britfish...I noticed that Grace was in a different baby home that Daria. I was thinking they were at the same one. Daria's was more like a shack that was next to other shacks lined up on a back street, not a building. hum....

Shay,

If you remember from Nungesser's posts the sign looks like it says "Crap Dogs" in Cyrillic.

Russian on the left. American on the right.

Notice that our squishy pillows for the plane were fluffier than the hotel pillows.

I take great pride in making it through Russia without having to use the public restroom (noted in photo). One pays 10 rubbles (35 cents) for this experience and in return receives three to five sheets of the fine Russian TP to enjoy.

Here are some dancing babushkas on Arbat Street. She was doing Russian kicks.

Butabiz... Could it be? Is that the Ukraina hotel I recognize??

The Russians really drive as bad as everyone says (if not worse). Save yourself while in Moscow. Don't cross the street. Look for an underpass. There's one on every block. It looks like you are going into a subway but if you look across the street you can see where it come out at. Only cross at corners that have white stripes going across and even then, look back to make sure no cars are coming and run for your life!

We had fun taking lots of fun pictures (like me thinking with the statue of "The Thinker"). The architecture in Moscow was amazing! This is the Cathedral of Christ the Savior and was absoultely beautiful.

Beaglepup, you are right. It must be the pillows that gave it away!
