Moscow, Russia

Made it here late last night at about 11 pm. Finally got to our hotel, because it seems pretty hard to find a legit taxi around here. So we got to our hotel at about midnight-ish, and get to the reception desk and ask about our room, and the lady just kinda looks at me at points to a sign and then the clock. So i look at the sign at it says that the reception desk is closed from 11:30pm till 1:30am. But I just wanted to make sure that we were in the right hotel and we have confirmation on the room, but she just kept pointing at the sign and then to the clock......awesome. So we wait....have a little late night snack, and finally check in. Get to bed, really late and have an 11 am practice scheduled. So we finally get up, eat breakfast, and go out to the front to where the taxi's are. There are about 3 taxis and they all say no to us.....awesome. So we go to the reception desk, and ask them if they can call us a taxi, and the lady says that they only work with the taxis outside. So we tell them, that they all said no, and ask again if they can call us a taxi and they say no.......awesome. So they tell us to go out to the street and look for one...so we do. And some random car pulls up- apparently a taxi- and we get a ride from him. Practice was good, weather is a little cold and rainy. Back in our hotel, going to take a nap.
