You’re right, I really enjoyed Ilf and Petrov’s book and tracing their footsteps would have been very interesting, particularly in this day and age – when Russia and the U.S. seem to be becoming both more similar and more different.

Of course, the best thing would be if you could have them follow Ilf and Petrov's route from their 1930s visit. But if not, that can wait for the sequel blog, <i>Mnogoetazhnaia Amerika</i>.
