We got two passports, a couple of visas...

...But you probably still know our real names.  Even though they're in Cyrillic.

All foreigners visiting Russia need a visa. In order to get one, travelers need an invitation from a Russian citizen or a company, which is then taken to a Russian embassy or consulate, where the actual visa is issued. What this means in practice is that specialty companies will provide Russian visas to American citizens.  For a price of course.  The visas are pasted into your passport.

We've got two, very official-looking, with hologram.  As a bonus, our names are transliterated:
МОСКАЛИК, АНДРЕИ ДЖЕИМС and ПЕТЕРСЕН, ТЕРЕЗА Л

Write that down.
