From Russia with...

We are sitting here in an internet cafe in St. Petersburg. Its hard to believe we've been here almost two weeks already. After a week in Novgorod, the self-proclaimed most ancient surviving city in Russia, we spent a day in Moscow. It was interesting to see churches and other buildings that were built in the 10th and 11th centuries. Red Square was honestly breathtaking. Petersburg is beautiful and distinctively more Western-European than Novgorod or Moscow. Anyway, just a quick update...
