I met a new friend this morning -- Jerry.
He wanted to learn how to quilt, too!
I met Alexander the Great.... Quilter:
After work I stopped back at my hotel room and took some daylight photos for you:
Nice, huh?
If you want to see nice, go to ГУМ (pronounced: goom). It is a super-luxurious shopping mall on the eastern side of Red Square. Crazy! But definitely worth seeing. My co-worker wanted to buy a gift for his wife. He saw a purse. I kept saying "You can't afford it." He didn't believe me. $1500 US. "But it's just a fabric bag!" he said. Yep, it is. It was that sort of mall.
Next we found out how to empty Red Square really really fast -- Send a sudden downpour:
Now you understand the rain spots in this photo of Red Square from the bridge over the Moscow River:
After we got thoroughly soaked, we headed back to the hotel for a ragout. Fan-tas-tic!
Time for bed. Спокойной ночи!

Your hotel room looks really elegant Debby! The Goom has been there forever, I remember learning about it in high school in russian class... The Red Square is still gorgeous, rain or no rain. I'm a little jealous! :)
