Bus sign collection

It seems that George gets an email whenever I add to this blog...

So I thought it would be a good chance to display to him...

my interesting collection of Moscow Bus signs. This one was on sideways....

Truly fascinating.

Ice... everything

In Moscow during the day, the plus temperature melted the top of the snow and ice.

Nothing was free of this ice.

Lucky for me, I had on ice crampons.
