Or we could just go somewhere like this?

(This is the first McDonalds in Russia that opened in 1990...technically, that's a historical site, and you get fries with that piece of history)

To all those going to Moscow please behave yourselves, and don't go looking for trouble because the Moscow police will not treat you with kid gloves the way our police do. Watch out if you drink the local beers and Wodka because they are a lot stronger then what we get back home, and it won't take you long to get drunk, and if you do you could well find yourselves missing the flight home very easily.

Got to Moscow. After a 3hr 10 min flight, a 25 min queue to get our visas stamped, a 45 min train journey from the airport to Moscow, 4 stops on the Metro (you'll all enjoy sussing it out) & a 5 min walk to our hotel we are on our way out for the evening. The adventure has started. Beer time is upon us.

320 Roubles (£6.50ish) for the train only. They do a combined train & 1 metro journey for 360 Roubles. Saves queuing for Met tickets at the station. Jobs a good 'un.

Been trying to get a decent map of the metro to figure where we're going. Got the stations we need written down in Cyrillic should be sound.. think we have to change lines to get to our hostel though :-\ could be fun! haha
EDIT: Scrap that, found one. Print this out before you go gents, looks good to me: http://see-you-in-moscow.com/_bl/0/47721536.gif Just make a note of the metro name in cyrillic.
