Today we went to Tsaritsino park, which was once owned by Catherine the Great as one of her summer homes from what I understand. We walked around the grounds, which were very large (it's a big public park), and then went inside the palace. It was nice inside, but nothing was original because it was not kept up after the 1917 revolution; however, 2 years ago it was rebuilt as it originally was. After that we ate lunch near red square, and then went home because we all have to work on our papers. I will be working almost nonstop on the paper, on top of the normal homework I have plus the work I have from my tutoring sessions. It's jeans week this week, so I have started a load (I am only allowed one laundry load per week, which is even less than you think since European washers are about 1/4 the size of US ones). I will be up for a while typing and doing laundry.
