Well first off I would like to apologize for leaving all of our faithful blog readers hanging for three days. Im finding out Wendy is bad for my blogging consistency because she is so much fun.
WENDY AND OUR GOOD FRIEND TANYA. SHE SPOKE ENGLISH WITH A BRITISH ACCENT WHICH MADE TALKING TO HER IN RUSSIAN AND ENGLISH FUN.
ME AND SASHA FROM SOCHI. HE HAD A PINCHED NERVE IN HIS BACK SO I GAVE HIM A BACK MASSAGE.
We have some serious updating to do for you. We had a pastors conference at the place in Snegiri and people came from Sochi, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, and so on... It was so much fun to get to meet so many cool Russian people. I was Wendy's translator for a lot of the time which was super challenging and super fun.
A 30 PIECE "Матриошка" MATRIOSHKA DOLL. IT LOOKS A LITTLE CRAZY.
I SAW THIS LAMBORGINI ON ARBAT STREET AND JUST HAD TO HAVE IT. WERE IN A LITTLE DEBT NOW SO IF YOU FEEL LIKE DONATING US MONEY THAT WOULD BE NICE.
After the conference we went into Moscow with two people we met there: Anton and Irina. It was Anton's first time in the capital and I was excited for him and Wendy to see it. However because of the dumb Russian independence day "June 12" Red Square was all closed up to build a stage for some concert.
Wendy and I are "good walkers" by Russian standards which makes us acceptable partners for sight seeing in Moscow. You have to be a good walker seeing as how Wendy and I have walked over 12 miles in the last two days.
ANTON, IRINA, AND MYSELF POSING FOR A PICTURE IN FRONT OF ST.BASILS. THEY WERE TRULY FUN CITY EXPLORERS.
MY WIFE IS JUST SO STINKING CUTE!!! OH...YEAH AND THE MOSCOW VIEW IS NICE TOO.
After seeing Anton and Irina off at the metro station. Wendy and I headed for the "Vanilla Bed and Breakfast" which is a fancy name for "Hostel run by a student" We totally loved it though, we made friends with the other couples staying here one from Argentina, the other from St. Petersburg. Our room is an old dining room that was half heartedly turned into a bedroom. The lights were still the original chandioler and the long china cabinet still occupied one wall (but we thought it just made the room cooler)
HANGING OUT WITH RAQUEL AND EDUARDO FROM ARGENTINA IN THE COMMON ROOM OF OUR HOSTEL.
THE PICTURE DOESN'T REALLY SHOW THE WIERDNESS AND THE COOLNESS OF OUR HOSTEL ROOM.
Wendy and I are sitting in the hostel right now waiting to pack up and go to the Leningradsky Train Station to get on an overnight train to St. Petersburg. Everyone tells us that if we thought Moscow was pretty just wait until St. Pete. So we are super stoked. Stay tuned for more adventures.
