I've been bored silly so I decided to play around on the metro today. I rode the metro up to Maiden which required me to swap tracks once. I went to the underground mall there in search of a winter coat for Chris. Its been nice today but last week it was very cold and rainy. The underground mall is small and didn't have a children's shop. I hung around the top of the Maiden area for awhile and finally asked a few people about a shop. One woman told me to head to Pelcher's station which is between the internet cafe and my apartment. So I headed back. I couldn't find a shop so went to the internet cafe for coffee.
I asked the girls there about a shop near Pelcher. They said it was there and to go look again. Doah! So I walked back (about 1 block) and asked some street vendors. Keep in mind that they didn't speak English I didn't speak Russian. But I got the point across and they pointed at a shop on the corner. I finally had some success. It was a nice shop that had everything from coats, to clothing, to toys. I picked Chris up a coat, mittens, and longer socks.
After shopping, I headed back to the apartment. When I entered the phone rang. It was Vlad with some good news. The NAC gave me a new registration number for the 2nd dossier. I may get the letter of travel tomorrow.
