In Soviet Russia, women in the hotel lobby keep saying "hi" to me

I stopped in Red Square on my way to work today. Here's a few pics.

Its a lot like I remember with some key differences. It still took me 2 hours to get through passport control (which by the way, they dont really have those little rope thingies that dictate where the line is - so its like a mob of 1000 people pushing to get to the few opened passport control lines). When I got to the front they then didnt believe I was the guy in my passport photo (well.. I did lose 25lbs and a head of hair since then).

I'm staying at the renaissance which is definitely bougie. I am getting hit on a LOT by very daringly dressed women in the lobby - huh.. maybe I'm cute here!
