Last weekend my wife and I had a great time on a bus tour to the region known as the Golden Ring of Russia. We visited the cities of Yaroslavl and Kostroma. We were very lucky to have beautiful weather, it was sunny with small puffy clouds for almost the whole weekend and I took a lot of interesting pictures during the tour which was a gift from my wife to me for my birthday...

On the current weekend, May 17-18, I and my wife Olga are going to Yaroslavl and Kostroma. Currently I am receiving many requests for my services from football fans who coming to Moscow to attend their favorite teams, but I would like to inform with excuse that I have already booked my services on May 20-22.

...A short time later, after seeing my wife off to her work at the hospital very early in the morning  (7 am) and while it was still night in Austria, I went downtown to take some interesting photos during the last repetition of Victory Parade on the Red Square I met on Tverskaya street one photographer from Minsk (capital of Belorussia) and one from St. Petersburg and during the parade was able to relax a little bit from the current problem...

On May 4th about 5 PM, after seeing off my Austrian clients, Rupert, Alexandra, Victor and Jana, at Domodedovo airport, I was able to quickly get a ticket and catch the "AeroExpress" train which goes to  Paveletsky railway station in the center of Moscow within 45 minutes. On the way to Moscow I was very upset...

With posting this picture of the Dworak family and me (taken by a passing tourist as we stood in Red Square in front of St. Basil's cathedral), I would like to tell you the story of their last day in Moscow and the big problem we were about to encounter. But, at this moment we were quite happy :-)…
