Fun and Games with the Russian Federation Passport Office

With my papers finally arriving, I dart off to the Russian Passport office, thinking that I pay my STEEP $210 for entry into Russia.

The entry into the building is from swanky Bloor and Bay (not too far from the Finnish Consulate). It's interesting going into a room with one man behind plexiglass (who sends you next door and speaks no English) to a room full of disgruntled travellers from both Russia and Canada.

After waiting hours, the "gentleman" said that the documents were incorrect and I had to contact my host again. BLOODY NOSY as far as what I'm doing. But whatever...

I can barely keep my eyes open while I type. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
