Frog and Bullfinches

Champagne, Oysters.. and Cars on Lenin's Birthday

Some photos from my other blog, one of, here goes: I am still behind with My Restaurants series, with lots of backlogged entries yet to be posted, but here is something relatively fresh for a change:

On Saturday, April 22, 2023 - to celebrate the greatest philosopher and improver of human condition V. I. Lenin's birthday - went for a stroll about town and had some fast food - a bowl of "California" shrimp poke washed down with a glass of Rose sparkling and then three oyster-bar oysters with a glass of white bubbly.

 

Cars, oysters and champagne... ALSO after a long hiatus chanced upon another car show here in Moscow and so here is a photo dump

 

It was something of a cars and coffee meet but specifically for low cars aka whatever you call them, stanced?.

So basically went to this place called Hlebozavod 9 and found a party there so joined in.

First Tulips in Moscow
