Yes yes, I know. I wrote that a few times before and Garage seems to be like a cockroach staying alive long after you slapped it. Anyway, last Sunday Garage had another “closing” party. Apparently it has a new owner and he decided to close Garage and do something different with the place. Well, I only believe it, if its really closed in 2-3 weeks from now. Would be a pity, if one of Moscows best and oldest after hour clubs would be gone for good. RIP, I have to say. Had som egood times theer as well ;-)

Uff, what a Winter. 0 C snow/rain for weeks now. We can feel global warming over here as well. This is my 6th Winter in Moscow. Last one was pretty mild already and this one started out fine with normal temperatures of -15 C, but for the past weeks we have the dirty slush and it doesn’t seem to come to an end. Worse is only the ice rain. Sometimes temperatures drop below 0C at the bottom, but slightly above Moscow it must be warmer, because its raining down on Moscow and turns it into an ice city. This happened about 3 times in the past week and this morning I slid to work again.

Its a problem for me with sneakers or mountain shoes already, but how painful is this for all of these high heeled women. I pay big respect to their ability to cope with this. Like the girl in front of me this morning. I was walking on a side street of Tverskaya near Pushkinskaya and its going downhill, but the walkway also drops to the left as well. You are sliding in a 45 degree angle to the down left into the parking cars. This girl was managing to walk down straight on the sidewalk with ultra high heels and she almost never slid or stopped. Only once at the bottom she went a bit more slowly. Respect!

People wait about 20 min at this turn near Kremlin until some cop is switching the light to green. After a while they start honking to make give the cop a little stress and to let him know that he is taking his time too long already. This is happening all over the place, but especially on this turn since its related to the main entrance of Kremlin and whenever a VIP goes in or out, the cops hold the traffic, causing massive traffic jams.
