Moscow Transfer

We arrived in Moscow Domodedovo airport at 6am and had a 14hrs to wait until our connecting flight to Magadan, knowing this we had planned to do our currency conversion here because the rate was so much better in Moscow and there were 24hour banks open on Sunday to facilitate this.
After searching for a couple of hours for a bank that would change sterling (Kevin had no problem with euros, all banks took them) we walked into red square to see the kremlin and we lay on the grass for a couple of hours watching the world go by, then off for a bit of lunch before heading out to a different airport for our onward jorney.
We arrived at the airport with hours to spare which was just as well because we were in the wrong airport! Oops now we have to get to the other side of Moscow to the right one which took 1 ¾ hours and left us 1 ½ hour before departure. Phew!!! Not quite sure how we got it so wrong in the first place but Kevin told me it was my fault! (actually was).
