Dense smoke in Moscow - Part I
Due to several forest fires, Moscow has been covered with a dense smoke/smog blanket.
While passing 10.000ft during our descent to Domodedovo Airport we started to notice an intense smell of burning wood in the whole cabin of our Airbus which scared some passengers that thought there was something wrong with the aircraft!
Visibility is also severely affected as you can see in the following photos taken outside the terminal of the airport.
Despite of the air being somewhat unbreathable I hope to go to the Red Square tomorrow...

Moscow
It was just a night stop. Not much time to see what everyone should see when going to Moscow. But I will certainly be back there: I will eat borsch soup again; I will walk through the Old Arbat and see the Kremlin and Lenin's Mausoleum; I will buy an Аэрофлот t-shirt and maybe an old airline pilot's hat.
