So it is much more pleasant to look at Moscow and enjoy the scenery rather than discuss not very visible aspects of our life. Scenery of late winter offers all the funny details that make walking in the city a relaxing experience. Amusement parks are also full on weekends, and balloons are sold even in the snowstorm. And snow, that same snow we started the story with, makes not just nights looking magic. Strange thing, this story is titled Leaving the snow behind - but it seems impossible to leave it there immediately.
Snow also serves as perfect sunshine reflector, so good for first tanning of the season.
Parks look like beaches even if the dresses do not remind of bathing-suits. They spell spring and sun anyway. Snow plays tricks with motorists - sometimes in the morning it is impossible to find the cars parked by Moscow houses. Spring means brighter colors everywhere, and March started showing them indoors and in the streets. Street vendors are also becoming more active and numerous.
