To The Embassy

Our last stop before the airport on the magical mystery tour is the US Embassy. They will make Elizabeth a US citizen and a registered Republican. Just kidding about that last part, of course.
I wonder if the Children's Hope people will give us that promised tour of Moscow today, finally. I don't really care if they do, quite frankly. For the sake of having some video footage of Moscow's famous landmarks, etc., however, that would probably be good.
