Another day well-wasted.
It was our first almost-sunny, almost-warm day in Moscow in what feels like forever and Miles, Maxime, and I took advantage of the almost-nice weather. We went to Izmailovsky Market again today in one last effort to load up on souvenirs to bring home. I've already blogged about that so I won't get into details about that. Afterwards, we went back to Vdnkh and there we rented bikes and cruised around the park to places we hadn't been able to see before. It was a great way to spend the day. Miles even unofficially initiated us into his "bike gang" the Angels and we rode in formation, barely managing to dodge pigeons and pedestrians along the way. In the process, Miles almost got us all involved in some sort of community-wide scavenger hunt. We didn't wind up participating but we did get red jumpsuits out of the deal! I think Shelli had more fun with mine when I brought it home than I did. She danced and cooked gretchka in it later that night.
Later, we strolled down the path behind our hostel with a few of our Russian friends discussing everything from soccer and beer to physics and the meaning of life.
