Today I got up at 9 am. I am going to Bolshoi Theatre.

There are many doors here. I tried to enter from door 12, but it turned out I am supposed to be at door 16. There are many babushkas.

I am on the 7th floor. I bought the ticket for only 400 Rubles.

400 Rubles for a ticket. If Bolshoi Theatre is a museum, it would have cost more. And I would stand here for 2 hours in the back.

Ok, let's face it, it's a terrible place to watch. Ballet is not for the poor. It's so bad watching from such a cheap place. But you can take pictures here.

Everyone was looking for open locations on the 7th floor. It is very hot in the theatre! But everyone is immersed and enjoying the performance.

23000 Rubles left.

After 30 minutes, people cleared up a little. And you can watch much better.

I thought there is a mistake here? The woman dancer dropped the ball. She picked it up quickly and threw it away.

Although, after so many days I haven't talked to anyone in person. Like, you see people, you can chat with people on Telegram, but I haven't actually interacted with anyone face-to-face.

It's 36 degrees again today. I am going to the Pushkin Museum. 500 Rubles.

It's so hot even inside. I think the air conditioner is on, but it's not enough for comfort. Somehow I tugged behind the back of a tour group.

And there is the piano. Pushkin had a very good musical education.

Немецкий, язык естественных наук и математики, Греция, язык музыки, Франция, язык литературы.

Диван, на котором сидел Пушкин

Only wealthy people can afford such a clock, but Pushkin is wealthy.

Pushkin received 6 years of education, but he is poor in mathematics.

Pushkin is also a great dancer.

And there is "Евгений Онегин".

The tour ended, and I left the Pushkin Museum.

I want to walk in the Sokolniki Park. But dark clouds are gathering and it is becoming incredibly hot. I've been trapped by the rain.

Полгода плохая погода.
Полгода - совсем никуда.

Никуда, никуда нельзя укрыться нам.
Но откладывать жизнь никак нельзя.
Никуда, никуда, но знай, что где-то там
Кто-то ищет тебя среди дождя.

(Мэри Поппинс)

Two young people were waiting with me under a bus stop. An older woman walked up and sat nearby. She asked, "Девочки, не могли бы вы дать мне сигарету." Thunder was loud and close. I read on Yandex the rain would continue for an hour. So it's not usual for Moscow to be 35 degrees. And now the city is weeping, weeping bitterly over this heat, luring me.

The rain stopped after half an hour. I am going to the Sokolniki Park. It didn't stop completely, but it mostly cleared up.

The entrace was blocked because there was a construction. And after the rain it is cold. I went into another entrance.

This is one of the first parks in Moscow that I knew. When I looked at the map, I saw this park instantly, and then I wrote a short fiction about dating and falling in love with someone near Sokolniki and spending the night in the park and the nostalgia of the "Карусель" after watching Mary Poppins. And here I am.

There are some music playing here. Right now it's Instasamka, "Деньги да". And then Матушка (Татьяна Куртукова).

И вот пляж

My is was going to die before I get back.

My phone shut down because the battery was empty.

It turned out to be a bad situation. Everything here looks the same - forest paths and green trees. I wandered off in the wrong direction, and I realized that I was in the woods near the construction site. The construction was blocking my way. I was supposed to head south, but I went north instead. It took way longer than I expected, and it was getting dark. Luckily, I saw a sign. And I figured out the way back quickly.

I finally got back to the hotel. I bought some grapes.
