Sportivnaya - where we live

We live up on the eighth floor. From the balcony, the view is of the park at Novodevichy Monastery, and Sportivnaya, our neighborhood. Ahead is the city center: A spotlit Stalin skyscraper is just visible on the horizon. Leaning out of the kitchen window, you can see the university skyscraper, a golden, gothic-style tower standing on a hill carpeted with trees. Luzhniki Stadium is in the foreground, and when Madonna performed there in September, Ved caught strains of "Sorry."
