Moscow, Russia!

Moscow was not like I expected.  I thought you wouldn’t feel safe and that it would be cold.  Moscow is really nice with really colourful buildings with huge, fancy, gold roofs and it’s really, really clean, there are people painting and cleaning all the time.  There is heaps of traffic. In Moscow we visited the …
