** Elegant first section through Europe - we can spend one day each in Cologne/Warsaw/Kiev (or Minsk)/Moscow, or we could get to Moscow quickly and have pretty much two full days there.

*** Why have two full days in Moscow? I (Smith) would assume we just adjust our departure day so that we arrive in time to board the TSR

**** On the basis that weekends are free time off, so we might as well spend them somewhere cool. (The Trans-Siberian only runs once a week, so we have to take it Tuesday evening whatever else we do). Also, Moscow is likely to have enough stuff to interest us, no?
