Tesla

For completion's sake, here is a Tesla at a charging pod in Moscow recently.

I am not into, and not a fan of, e-vehicles in general and specifically not into, or a fan of, of Musky's Teslas, so I won't ID it other than saying that it is a Tesla.




By way of a bonus, here is some photography from walking the adjacent streets in Moscow in October of 2021 with some text in English.

 

 

Here is another of our photo-walks through the Arbat neighborhoods in the month of October 2021 in Moscow.

First one has to have a bite to eat.

 

A late breakfast - early lunch - two salads herring with salad dressing and a "Japanese" salad with imitation crab plus a cup of coffee.

The place is Grechka Lab deli-cafe.




The old sign was uncovered and restored on this building.

The sign of Bakery No. 20.

Below is a building in Gothic style mentioned in Bulgakov's Master and Margarita.


Some new statues nearby.

The two liberators.

Encounter at the Elbe.

House No. 27 where Herzen lived and now houses the Literary Museum.

Property No. 34 in Sivtsev Vrazhek - Leo Tolstoy himself lived in it, and the property is mentioned in War and Peace.

Pub Ulysses.

Architect K. Melnikov house which he built himself for himself and his family.

However, fences and other structures impede the view.



This is a fully wooden building clad with gypsum to imitate stone as per ancient tradition in Moscow as it was built in 1823 and will soon mark 200 years.


Italian embassy is housed in a very beautiful building.


Property No. 10 in Chisty Pereulok - pseudo-Gothic style ca. 1908.

Prechistenka.


Wooden building, property No. 9, where write Bulgakov also used to live for a time.



Former palace of Prince Dolgorukov and now an Arts Gallery.

This plaque marks another ancient (at least 100 year old) shop sign found and restored.





A monument to sculptor Mukhina.

A different kind of statue.

That's all for now, folks, but the adventures are to be continued naturally.
