Travel woes







Here's an interesting article from today's Moscow Times.
http://www.moscowtimes.ru/stories/2008/03/14/003.html

It cites TripAdvisor, which lists Moscow as the 3rd rudest city in Europe. I will agree that Moscow is perhaps not the friendliest place we have ever been, but we did run into some friendly folk. One man kindly gave us directions (in English) at a Metro stop, and others were helpful when we visited Volkonsky Bakery. That was our very first desination after we arrived in Moscow. It's an incredible bakery I had read about on the Internet prior to our visit. It's owned by Parisian baker Eric Kayser. It was well worth the trip on the Metro (thank god for Brad's sense of direction!). Here are a couple of pics of the bakery.
