March 8th was Women's Day, and so we had the day off of classes. Later in the evening Denis, Galya, Isaac, Joey and I took the metro down to Arbat Street to take a walk.
Arbat Street is in the historic center of Moscow near Red Square, and is one of the oldest surviving streets of Moscow. The place reminded me of downtown Charleston, and like historic Charleston, the Street was bustling with tourists and pocketed with coffee shops and cafe's.
