On Friday, January 5 we had another day of touring Moscow. Our first stop was the Kremlin again. This time we were on the opposite side from Red Square and entered the main gate to tour inside the wall. Elena, the main guide for our group (on the left in the fur hood) left us in the capable hands of Sasha (her real name was Alexandra; she said if the monarchy was ever restored to Russia she should be Tsarina!) who took us into the Kremlin and told us all about it. Not all of our group did the Kremlin tour this day; some of the folks who had been there before preferred to use the time to go to the market at Ismailovo and do more shopping. I wouldn't have missed the tour for the world!
