Kogs:
ok puddin im on it to transolate for u :kuss:

supsandalee:
Slowhatch we're both right -- Novodevichy, or "New Maidens Convent". Thought I was going crazy for a minute.
Click on my links and you'll see these are the same places.
Our Pitstop??  ???

Chateau d If:
The big one is 8" tall.

There are 30 pieces in all.

Maybe they have to find the Red Matryoshka.   ;)

Chateau d If:
Yeah, the cathedals are the same. I was not sure until looking at Slowhatch's webcam site and you see other buildings that match Sups pics.   

But it's not the pitstop due to Puddin's observation that Eric & Jeremy are counting money in the Red Square shot.

And.... where is it located on the map?

supsandalee:
The name of the cathedral is actually Smolensky Cathedral.
"The convent is rather like a miniature Kremlin and the magnificent 5-domed Smolensky Cathedral was built in 1525 in the same style as the Kremlin Cathedral of the Assumption"

The location is in the south-west of Moscow, at the curve of Moscow-River. (that's the best description I have so far so start googling!)
