Today we head to Moscow on a train at 19:55 (7:55) its hard to believe its been almost a week here and a bit sad to leave, but we still have plenty time to explore.
First coffee at a french bakery that smells amazing, wish I could have bottled some up to use later, like on the train.
We walked down the Adreyvski Desent looking for/at souvenirs and also a visit to the Bulgakov Museum that was very interesting.
Then up the hill through woods, we wondered upon a Museum of Ukrainian history, that we visited. Vladimir I of Kiev brought Christianity to the area in the late 980's, replacing paganism and its gods of which some are displayed outside the museum.
At the post office to mail post cards, although buying tamps took several attempts at several sections of the post office. Each area had its own specific purpose such as, business mail, small packages, large packages, etc.
We had to see what a local McDonald's was like before heading back to the apartment for a quick shower and a walk to the Train Station (about 30 min).
Our tickets were second class, meaning that each cabin has four "beds", we were on the top. As a child Lilya loved riding the train therefore she insisted on this "experience". David on the other hand found it a bit claustrophobic and out of a comfort zone sharing a small space with two strangers. Overall the train ride was fun, Moscow here we come!
