Help!

Only two nights here in Moscow and we are bored already. How to TAHAN another four nights???? Initially, supposed to fly off to Houston on Tuesday, but because of my dumbness, we are only flying off on Thursday. Bleah...
Why Bleah?? No.1 problem is language. Russians do NOT speak English and wait staff are generally unfriendly. The whole blardy place is d@mn hot. The air-cons all are of substandard quality. Really can pengsan.

Though lots of nouveau riche here, generally still very "'chamm'". First day we arrived, there was no bottled water at the kiosks by the main railway station, then there was NO soda at the Red Square McDonald's. Today... We were at Bosco Cafe over at GUM where sandwiches start at USD 11 and they have NO ice. Waliow! Not only no ice, the air-con is like non-existent. If go to the toilet (very fancy looking by-the-way), can faint from stuffiness and heat!

Anyway, there was a Bavarian race around the Kremlin today. Didn't see the race...as didn't buy tickets but could hear the roars of the F1 car engines. Tonight, we are catching the "Nutcracker". Nope. Both H and I are NOT ballet fans. But come all the way to Moscow, surely must watch the famous ballerinas la...

Think tomorrow we will join the throngs of tourist and go into the Kremlin. Think H wants to go into Lenin's Mausoleum. And to kill time, we probably will go on a river cruise too. Other than that, what else to do? Fiddle with my Canon DSLR lor....
