Red Square - second week in a row!

 Red Square is a block from the subway station - this is the side of the famous St. Basil's - nice because it is up closer.  Last week we were here on a Visa Trip - this week on a Training one ... I like traveling and learning new things.
 There are double decker red buses like in London!
 The GUM department store is a Russian State icon - and very expensive!  We used the restroom and had to pay 30- rubles for the privilege!  Then we ate a delicious lunch - not too much money.  It was fun to window shop - found a tie for 11,000 rubles - $200.00 US dollars!
 More of the amazing store - lots of Christmas decorations and things to see.
The Store is the one with all the lights - really pretty in the dusk.
