Its hard to believe a whole year has passed since we last visited Russia. The time passed quickly and on our return we were accompanied by our good friends Obadiah (Obie) and Danielle Dalrymple from our Sunday School class. After a short ten hour flight from the states, our first stop was a 12 hour layover in Moscow giving us the opportunity to leave the airport and see some of the sights. Of course no visit to Moscow is complete without a stop through Red Square. Danielle took a great panoramic shot of Red Square (below) that should help give you a better idea of how large it is. Straight ahead is St. Basil’s cathedral and on the right you see the Kremlin wall along with Lenin’s tomb. After our brief sightseeing, we caught our flight to Novosibirsk (literally New Siberia), the 3rd largest city in Russia. From there we took a 5 hour bus ride to our final destination, the city of Tomsk.
