Sheremetyevo International Airport ( CNN ) -- My first morning at Moscow Airport 's Terminal E consisted of an indescribable burger at Burger King . We are thinking of going to one of two TGI Friday 's for dinner in Terminal D. There is always Costa Coffee for tomorrow morning if I want to walk the half mile or so from my pod hotel room . I 'm on day two of my time inside Moscow 's international transfer terminals . They are long , clean , stuffed with shops and not stuffed with very many people . The person I have come to look for is Edward Snowden , the former National Security Agency computer contractor who spilled details of U.S. surveillance programs to reporters . President Barack Obama says he wo n't take extraordinary measures to track Snowden down . He is apparently holed up in here , somewhere . He is not likely in one of the hostel-like rooms you can rent by the hour , nor is he in the bars -- I have dutifully checked them all , including the annoying one with piped bird song surrounded by 1970s rustic charm . This is a 24-hour transit hub , so we could buy a beer at 2:30 a.m. and I could have bought luggage , vodka , chocolate and toys all night long . Snowden could too , but no one has seen him getting gifts for his next hosts , whoever they may be . It 's not the worst place to be holed up . Our excitement Thursday was crowding around Gate 25 to see if Snowden caught the flight to Havana , Cuba . Two dozen or so journalists , most working off iPhones or iPads pretending not to be journalists , filmed and photographed bemused Russian children and their parents looking forward to a summer holiday in the sun , while an angry Aeroflot agent told us we could not film , but did nothing to stop us . A number of journalists now seem to have packed up and took the next stage out of town . There is n't another flight to Cuba until Saturday and why is it presumed he will take one any time soon ? So it 's another night in the hourly hotel with paper-thin walls for those of us staying . Still it 's better than sleeping against a wall of Terminal E in bright lights which dozens of people did last night .
Moscow 's international airport is hub of the hunt for Snowden . But he has not been seen for days . Comment:
