From Tverskaya to Red Square, we walked slowly n enjoying the nite view... elyn is so lucky to be with us, she's been only in moscow for short period of time, about 2 months but managed to get to many places.... even Buya made a pity statement that nite, he is already in final year but that was the first time ever he walked along the Tverskaya Street, n he was really glad that he joined us...
at the back of them, is a lovely fountain... located in front of the McDs we had our dinner rite on the Pushkin Square.... nearby, located the big Kinotheatre Rassii (Russian cinema), big Shangri La Casino, and the Actor Gallery....
i was so excited to bring them to this one famous shop named "Elesiyevski", it is the oldest shop n they really made this shop looks so amazing... even from outside, peeping thru the big window, one must be amazed n surprised n can't wait to go in n explore the beautiful scenery.... there are several large chandeliors hanging on the ceiling, n i reckon even one cost u hundred thousands or maybe million... who knows rite??? the wall , uhhhhh,.... i am really not good in explaining thing n will only show the pics later when i manage to capture them.... i actually went here 3times already, but none of the times that i ever brought my camera along.... we were not so lucky dat nite, the Elesiyevski Department Store was already closed for visitors n buyers since 8pm...
does everyone notice my outfit in this pic?? i was wearing the new black jacket n black mini skirt which really made a good looking long coat...
have a look at the huge Santa Claus..... it doesn't look nice but only scary.... i bet the kids will run n cry if they see this...
ok, i have no idea what building is it... it just looks nice n summore in front of it there is Peter the Great riding on a horse, statue... they even put a red winter cloth on Peter, which made him look like a santa....
it was freaking cold n we stopped by at this one mobilephone store, it was the only one shop that's still open.... the fact is that on every new year eve, all shops, stores, supermarkets, restaurants n boutiques will close at 8.00pm.... i adore this princess or maybe newly wed bride patung, her dress so beautiful n she looks alive talking on the phone.... so that, elyn n me sat together on the bench, n forced hannan to snap our picture quickly bcz actually everyone was looking at us yg look so jakun.... hehe...
here are the three hot ladies that nite... beautiful Lisa, comel pwetty elyn, n cutey me... n u can see buya was looking n studying the menu on the board... this is a Chinese Restaurant, so no questions why is it sooo RED.... ( the red lighting actually reminds me of the well-known Red District of Amsterdam)
everyone knows that to get into Red Square for the new year countdown is real hard.... that's y we tried to get here as early as we can n actually by that time we arrived, it was only 9.00pm... which means we had to wait for another 3hrs standing n doing nothing.... seems like the clock ticks very slow, even slower than a crawling tortoise or perhaps a snail... duhhhh.... Zak cudn't stay any longer, he decided to leave early n so Lisa oso had to leave us bcz they din wear proper thick jacket... quite disappointing when only 4 pples left... we tried to stay until the countdown but then elyn n me feels like crying, we cudn't feel our feet, they were really cold n stiffed... so, by 10.00pm we walked out from the crowd....
it is GUM department store.... took the pic on our way leaving the square... we were going sumwhere else to celebrate the new year... it was helpless to stay rite on the Red Square for another 2 hrs..
GUM panorama from inside...
