Russia -part 1
1st day -The journey
I left KL on Friday night 27th April. As expected jalan jam. Risau jugak driver tak sampai on time sebab dah tau MRR2 bawah bukit tu jam gila. But we arrived on time. Had dinner at KLIA before check-in. The flight to Dubai was overbooked. Minus 19. Tak tau la sape yang kena offload tu. At 12midnight que masih panjang. The flight to Dubai took me 7hours. Dalam flight tengok movie, makan, makan, and makan! EK punyer flight banyak food. I dok minum air sbb terasa dehydrated. Sampai Dubai at 350am. Connecting is at 930am. Lama nak tunggu. I cari surau, then masuk duty free shop. Around 630am lepak kat Safar lounge. For EK pax yang transit more than 4 hours boleh lepak kat sini. Ada buffet food. Que nak masuk punya la panjang. Then my flight to Moscow took me another 5 hours. By the time sampai, punya la letih. Nasib baik tour guide tunggu. Naik tour bus pergi city. 1 hour journey. The road in Moscow ada 3-4 lane. Tapi masih jam. Their traffic is worst than KL. Tempreture was at 1o' only. Sejuk. We stop at The Red Square for an hour. Sempat la posing depan St Basil's Catheral. Church yang ada dome macam-macam colour tu. After that we had dinner at a Russian restaurant. Makan ikan. 8 hari kat sana, makan ikan aja. Check-in kat hotel Cosmo, 4star their standard, tapi macam 3star ja. Tapi not so bad. It is a big & tall hotel. My cousin, Nadira, came to visit me. Pass dia segala rendang, kerepek, cookies yang aunty yot kirim. Punya la dia seronok dapat food. Borak-borak kejap, then dia balik.
2nd day - Moscow
The next day after breakfast I had the Kremlin tour. Kat dalam tu tengok Museum penuh dengan barang-barang zaman pemerintahan raja & pemaisuri sebelum kurun 17. Damn, diorang kaya gila. Imagine, baju bukan penuh beads yang lawa saja, tapi penuh dgn stones, gems. Diamonds, Jades, Ruby, Amber, Topaz, Sapphire, Amethyst, Rose Quartz, and banyak lagi. Masih berkilau and cantik. The royal carriage pun penuh diamond. Selama ni kalau tengok classic English movie kat tv ingat dah lawa dah, huh, yang ni segala size semua ada, and lagi beautiful. Tapi sayang, tak leh amik gambar la. Hampeh betul. Even the horse pun ada their own costume full with diamonds. Kat dalam Kremlin ni, ada Alexander Garden. Memang cantik. Pokok baru nak berbunga, dengan weather still sejuk, hmm..... memang la lawa! Kat dalam kremlin ni ada few cathedrals, palaces which now are used as museums and administrative for Russia government. Tak jumpa Mr Putin kat situ, nampak tingkap office dia saja. You can read more about kremlin here : Moscow Kremlin
After lunch I had Metro tour. Ni tour their train station. Why train station? Sbb Moscow punya metro station memang cantik. The design, the paintings, the scupltures, the chandeliers, memang boleh duduk saja kat train station ni. After Metro pergi balik Red Square, masuk St Basil Cathederal. Kat Russia memang dok masuk church ja la. They really decorate the church. Paintings on the walls up to the siling. Each paintings has its own story. Luar St Basil ni I amik gambar segala angle yang boleh. Lepas dah habis kat kremlin area, pergi Arbat Street. Kat sini macam memang tourist spot. I bought some souvenirs here. Russian dolls mostly, and t-shirts for my two darling despatch. Nak beli barang kat Russia kena tengok-tengok sket. Their main thing is cathedrals, so memang lambang salib banyak la on each souvenirs. But they are beautiful. I bought some for my non muslim friends. But I managed to get the one that suits for my muslim friends. Sempat singgah Hardrock cafe. Adik sibuk nak tshirth hardrock original dari moscow. Tapi size dia takde. I bought an XL, if he doesn't want, then ayong it is yours then.
3rd day -Moscow and off to St Petersburg
Today buat city tour in the morning, petang pergi Ismailovo Market. Market ni besar, macam petaling street. Ada macam-macam benda jual kat sini. Kat sini, tengah beli barang, tetiba snow turun. Makin sejuk. By this time I dah rasa tak larat, badan dah start panas. Tapi shopping tetap shopping. After dinner pergi train station. Naik 1st class train pergi St Petersburg. 8 hours in the train. Depart at 12midninght. Dalam train memang kelakar. Kitorang tak jumpa blanket. Ingat kan memang takde kut. Sbb bantal ada, towel ada. Mungkin towel cum blanket. After 30minit train dah jalan, baru discover mana blanket. Nak cakap dgn conducter, they speak russian, tak faham. But the journey was good, tido lena. By the time nak reach SPE, lalu few villages, rumah penuh covered with snow.
okay, stop dulu, nanti sambung part 2 next week ok?
