Pictures- red square in daylight, GUM, Lenin day

Moscow State University, where my tutor Masha studies!

Lenin's masoleum

Hi Lenin! I took this picture really sketchily because I wasn't sure if I'd have to pay or not. But then he waved! And I was so excited. Like, butterflies in my stomach. I love Lenin
State History Museum
Christmas Cosmonaut Dog... of course

Babies and Christmas trees!
christmasy ГУМ
ahhh so beautiful
I walked around eating creme brulee ice cream and wanting to live here forever. Except I'm barely good looking enough to shop here, and definitely 3 plastic surgeries away from working here. Such is life
Outside of guuum
Belltower
need I say more? Except why were so many people here? Anyone know? Is it because alexei the second died?
Lenin, me and.... someoneee.... I had to pay for this privilege, because I'm a week and a half away from home and I figured I haven't been touristy enough during my stay here. In fact I've spent most of my time ashamedly taking pictures and hoping no one realizes I'm from America and subsequently beats me to a pulp and steals my money. Also, I look like a bald reanimated zombie in the picture... WTF. I feel like the photographer should have been like  "zombie girl! let's make this a little less dead corpse and liven it up." Oh well, Vladimir Ilyich steals the picture anyway with his little newspaper. Doesn't he look just like Lenin? I've seen what's left of Lenin... and believe me, this guy looks the part. Maybe this is really a double zombie picture. Ok, enough.
