"Stories of how much fun I had in Russia" Russia by Moishka

Russia Travel Guide: 14,174 reviews and 35,871 photos

I went to Russia unsuspecting and unaware of what awaited me before getting there and I was so pleasingly surprised at how much fun I had in my month long stay. The main mission of my journey was to meet the woman I had been talking to on line for about a year and once we met, it was almost like a storybook love story. As soon as I can get through the paperwork here in the United States, I will have her over here to marry and be mine for all of time. The picture I have included at this point in my profile is the same as elsewhere in it and it is of the two of us in front of a pet shop in the enormous mall adjacent to Red Square in Moscow.
After I landed in Moscow, I had to wait a short while to get through Customs and all and I thought to myself this airport I was in really was pretty cool. The ceiling had a texture to it all to its own and this new world of some where else here on Earth I had never been to before really did not seem so far away any longer. Le'inn, the girl I had met on line by accident almost a year before had told me on the phone when I had called her from Frankfurt, Germany an hour or so before my landing she would be an hour or two late after I landed. This was a relief to me as I had had a rough time getting to sleep what with the clams close to me on my flight over doing there best at being loud and keeping everyone else awake and the thought of my putting my bags down to get a few hours of shuteye sounded very appealing indeed.
I got through the last gate of the airport and was now underground. There were seats every where and I was just getting ready to walk on over to one of them to get my longed for rest when I heard my name called with a familiar voice. Some how she had already gotten there moments before my plane had landed and was waiting for me in this underground part of the Moscow airport.
She was wearing all white and this was so appropriate as she looked so angelic floating over to me. We hugged and kissed and I knew for sure then and there I had at last found the woman I was to call my wife and most significant other.
