We stayed up later than expected last night (I suppose that's what happens when you don't eat dinner until 10pm), so we enjoyed sleeping in until 9am. Unfortunately, that meant we got a late start and, also due to some misinformation, we arrived at the Red Square after Lenin's Mausoleum was closed for the day. We walked around the city and visited the Pushkin Wuseum (where a reproduction of David and some egyptian artifacts are displayed) and the Moscow History Museum, where the major attraction was the clothes and maps of Moscow through the years. We wanted to visit the Russian History Museum, but it was closed, too. Instead, we walked the streets some more, seeing the KGB building and some monkeys with their performers.
We returned home early with a one-track mind to eat dinner early and go to bed by 8pm. However, that didn't happen. Instead, we watched a movie about Moscow, which was very informative, and ended up in bed around midnight.
