While I was working hard in the office, Romain was walking around and shopping with Andre. He brought some amazing Matriochkas back.
Enfin, ce soir la nous sommes alles faire du patin sur la Place Rouge!
C'etait vraiment sympa, ca ne fait que 2 ans qu'elle ouvre en hiver et c'est tout un symbole pour les Moscovites. Un de mes clients au bureau m'en parlait avec des etoiles plein les yeux, decrivant a quelle point il etait interdit de faire quoi que ce soit sur la Place Rouge il y a quelques annees.
We finally got to go ice skating on Red Square on that night :)
It was really cool, my first outdoor ice skating experience. But mainly, it's only the 2nd year the ice rink is opened on Red Square and it's a big symbol for Russians. One of my clients was talking about it with lots of and stars in his eyes explaining how new it is to have something a bit different done on Red Square.
