pikk sõit
Jul 9, 2007 (8 photos)

Hommikuks kaste maas. Saan telgist välja ronides ja jõe äärde nägu pesema minnes päris märjaks. Telgil pole muidu viga, aga enda sisse ja välja installeerimine on kaunis keeruline. Hommikusöögiks putkapartei ööbimiskohas kivikõvad pannkoogid. Pikk sõit Khövsgöli ...

Kella seitsmene äratus läheb nurja, sest koridoris toob meie inglisekeelne juht mulle mobiili, milles Zaza teatab, et auto on katki ja selle parandamine võtab kaks tundi. Jeaah. Sebime hommikusöögi kõrvalhotellis. 10.40 ei ole juhtidest ikka veel haisugi. ...
