Friday night Veronika and I ventured out on the Moscow River on a cruise. After all, we hadn't seen the many sights from the water. It was absolutely amazing!
Here is MGU, again. I can't stop photographing it. It is just too beautiful.
We bought a bottle of crappy wine, like bad Russians. Should've bought some vodka...
Gorky Park, once again.
Peter the Great Monument. 
Cathedral of Christ the Savior. 
Here comes the Kremlin.
This is one of my favorite Stalinist gothic buildings- the Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Apartment building. 
Alas, the cruise is over and time to make our way to the metro and back to the dorm. Something about walking along this beautiful skyline makes me not mind walking 20 blocks...
Just wanted to add- all around Moscow are these blini stands, a Russian version of fast food. A blin is a thin, Russian pancake (think crepe). Sometimes we stop by here and grab a blin with ikra (red caviar) or just with smetano (sour cream). They are hot and wonderful.
This is my favorite drink in Russia. It is Kefir and it is like a thick buttermilk. So, like sour chunky milk. Delish.
