Macrocosm Moscow-cosm microcosm

Soviet emblem

Snowflakes falling...trees on the way to the metro station, trimmed in preparation for Spring...prang in the road, and marshutka and car driver shouting the odds at each other...covered walkway, where informally any old tat can be sold for a few roubles...man calling out 'girl' (девушка) woman (женщина) to passing people to buy his shot glasses...cars scramble across/ along the tram tracks, dispersing, hopeful to pick up a fare.  Enter metro station to see a man crouched to the ground, looking out of it (on booze?)...the homebound train pulls in...next station= home(!)...4 kiosks now open for business (after new mayor's recent purge) by underpass on street to flat...buses galore and men jostling/ interacting in the middle of road...take picture of soviet emblem on ex-factory railing...arrive in my block to find lift out of order, climb 12 floors...take a picture of a stairwell memory(!)...next stop: weekend! (выходные!)  :)))

Good time had by all!
