Moscow - Ekaterinburg
We have made it to Ekaterinburg travelling on the Trans Siberian express. Looking out the window from the train it was as if we were travelling through Narnia. We also had a compartment to ourselves - not many people travel at this time of year because of the cold - but we still found it a tight squeeze. Not sure how we will manage with more than two people in a compartment - but we may find out.
Ekaterinburg is an interesting city, but unfortunately the main thing that we have noticed is that it is much colder than Moscow. We have walked around the city and just taking a quick break in the City’s post office before heading into the cold again.
We’re off to the ballet tonight to see ‘Giselle’ - not sure whether it will be our thing, but at least Karen has heard of this one so we reckon we’ll be OK.
Husky dog sledging tomorrow and hopefully some time for the blog - we still have things to write about Moscow!
