Kremlin

Today we went to the Kremlin to see the Russian collection of historical treasures. It was very interesting. We saw the collection of royal garments worn by many of the Russian Tzars and Tzaritsas, their thrones and crowns. Their beautiful carriages (many of which were gifts from other nations). Their armor and weapons collection, and their extensive collection of gold plates and other beautiful treasures. The security was extremely tight in the Kremlin, which is to be expected. No pictures were allowed inside the museum. After the collection we walked around inside the Kremlin and saw many of the Cathedrals within its walls. I didn't have my camera charger at this point so I don't have any pictures from this day. =[ But it was very beautiful! They also had a huuuuuge canon that was never fired, but when invading mongols came to the city and saw it they retreated. Also there was a collection of almost 1000 cannons that were abandoned by Napoleons army. After this tour Andrew and Victor went with me to try and find the store that has my camera charger. We navigated our way through the Moscow metro system like pro's and when we got off we walked around a bit and then went into this mall and I asked the girl at the information desk if she knew where the store was, she didn't but she pointed us in the right direction. I found the store and after a few minutes of waiting around for them to find it, I finally got my camera charger!!! Ура!!! (Hooray!) On our way back we stopped and looked at a small kitten who was roaming the streets. It didn't really trust us so it ran away.
