Well, a beautiful sunny day today with a clear sky and a light breeze, so perfect weather for Victory Day. Embarrassed to admit to it, but I missed the parade itself. First there were control checkpoints for getting close all along the Tverskaya route; and then having blagged my way into Red Square I managed somehow to find myself beyond the cordon again (due to a being distracted by nipping into
Zara in GUM probably!) And then, by the time I made my way back to Pushkin Square, everything had already gone by.
So I have to watch the Russia Today video on
YouTube like you ( whilst taking note of an - accurate - comment posted beneath that "
RT really did a horrible job on this one. Instead of a bunch of un-informed amateur commentators they should have just TRANSLATED what was said in the loud speakers for everyone to hear at the parade".)
