Moscow Metro

I will not steal Cameron's blog thunder (stay tuned), but I did want to post some pictures of our incredible day in Moscow. We are rounding out our picture of Russian history here in this city--some of the buildings in the Kremlin were built in the 15th century, almost three centuries before Peter the Great built St. Petersburg. We took a tour of the Moscow subway, which is honestly one of my favorite things we've done. Each station (of 176) has a different decorative style, with art that celebrates the peasants. St. Petersburg, the Kremlin, and much of Russian art celebrate aristocracy, while the Constructionist-era metro celebrates the worker in an ironically grandiose way. Cameron will fill you in on the rest. Tomorrow, we go to the Modern History Museum (Soviet stuff!) and to see Lenin. Good night! Molly
