Greetings From Red Square!

If you guessed this trip was a return to Russia, you guessed it right. Seems like that would be easy to figure out, as this has become a regular go-to place for me, having spent nine months in Russia in the last two years. Yet, it’s amazing even to me that I’m here once again.

The Kremlin is right across the river from my hotel. Red Square takes 10 minutes to walk to, which was the first thing I did after checking in. Walking around the central historic area is so familiar to me now, I *almost* feel like a local! Tomorrow, I’ll buckle down to business and begin paying attention to the real reason I’m here. I would tell you, but then… OK, just forget about it for now, the story will come out in due course, as it unfolds. Actually, even if I wanted to tell you about it now, I couldn’t, because I don’t know what will happen. All I know is this is an adventure into the unknown.

For now, I hope another gallery from Chad will suffice:
