Frozen in Moscow
"Cold" just got a brand new definition for me these days, in Moscow. At -37, cold is not only bitterly cold, as Yahoo likes to say, but it makes any trip longer than 100 meters sound like an extreme adventure.
In the meantime, the first rumours of penguins coming in vacation to Moscow appeared:
The hotel room is starting to look like an igloo. Since last night there's a thick layer of ice on the windows. Luckily, they say it's getting warmer. -25 during the next days.
Of course, there's always the banya, with 130 (plus) Celsius, which makes the cold a little bit easier to endure. Vodka seems to help too. My polartec's are coming a little bit short, though.
Warm greetings from the coldest place I've ever been in my life. :)
