Moscow Trip: Day 3: Energia
For the third day on the Russia trip, the ISU students were treated to a tour of the Roscosmos facility, Energia, primary developer and contractor of the Russian human spaceflight program! I was pretty excited to see this place and I think after you see the photos, you'll see why!

Moscow Trip Day 2: The Kremlin, Lenin's Tomb, and the Red Square
Day 2 in Russia, when the real adventure began!
Waking early the next day, my roommate and I enjoyed a nice breakfast in the hotel lobby. I must say that I love buffets, especially those offered at a resort or hotel. The spread of food is generally really good and the all-you-can-eat aspect is especially welcome. Finishing with full stomachs, we joined the rest of our classmates in the hotel lobby and set off toward the Kremlin and The Red Square!
