We climbed on board of our first overnight train at 12.20am. The cabins were 4 berth and Kate and I were sharing with the 2 Irish ladies. We took the top bunks to save the oldies climbing up and we quickly settled into a good sleep due to the rocking and shaking of the carriages.
We woke up in Moscow and hit the ground running. Soaking in as many of the sights as possible, The Red Square, The Kremlin, St Basil's Cathedral, The Armory (which is so chock full of gold and jewels owned by the Czars you can understand why they were overthrown, man they lived life to the excess!), the Art Muzeon Sculpture Park, Izmailovo Markets. It was a very busy 2 days and we were knackered by the time we got back on the train to begin the next leg of the Trans Siberian
