New Years

Gorky Park 

During the winter months, many of the parks freeze their walk ways and you can ice skate all around the park.  They have little food stands and fires to warm yourself.  It is so much fun!  We were able to see the fireworks from Red Square at midnight.  They also broadcast Putin's New Year's address on a giant screen.  All in all, it was a fun night!

GUM (Government Universal Store) 

This is pronounced Gewm.  It is a government owned mall on Red Square.  It doesn't matter what day of the year it is, it is always decorated super cool.
