Alternatively, Moscow

So I finally managed to sort a few pictures to add into this. It seems like it was just yesterday where we're rushing between train doors, frozen stiff while huddling to get to our destination. And of course, some snow ball fight that breaks apart before hitting the target.


We hit Tianjin first as part of the transit to Russia. It was very tiring mainly because of the instruments. Imagine 20kg baggage on one hand, another 10kg on the other hand. We had to walk from the bus station to the bullet train for Beijing. It was almost unbearable. But thank God a kind man actually guided us and helped with our luggage :D It was really sweet of him, when we were about to part he introduced us to his wife/girl friend that he was meeting there.

I feel obliged to insert this pic because of the bomb it cost for our ride. You're not a tourist if you haven't came across this experience.


The scenic tour before reaching to our hotel. A ride that was supposed to be 10 mins was dragged to 30 or more minutes. Paid more than 5 times we should.

It was probably about 0 degree that night. We had this heated pillow that we'd stuff our face in. One in action;


We searched and found a food street. Some food were just SO yummy that I don't know whether it's my stomach doing the talking or not.


The INFAMOUS maize that we always talked about. Looks so delicious, and like it melts in your mouth. Only it doesn't.


First prominent thing we experienced in Moscow is the metro station. I am impressed with their architectural designs. Just search on Google image for "metro station moscow" and you'll know what I'm talking about.


The temperature there was averagely about -10. It was extremely cold for me, and what's worse was I'm the type who can't stand cold weather. Nonetheless, I tried to take as much photos as I could.


Unfortunately by the time we were actually free to shop and look around, our time ran out. Although at the end I didn't captured thousands of pics, I am happy with what I have.
