I am having banna sandwiches for lunch and noodels for dinner which I will be having over the next few days. There is a hot water dispenser at the end of the hallway . I managed to have my first shower as well or sink whoer as it is ...

... Rucksack und dann noch eine riesengroße karierte Tasche - ganz Russen-Style. Dann war noch das Problem, den Bahnsteig zu finden und die Zeit ist immer knapper geworden. Als wir dann endlich auf der Zielgeraden waren, haben uns ein paar Leute angesprochen, wo wir denn her sind und wohin wir fahren und so weiter. Wir waren eigentlich nicht in der richtigen Stimmung für derartige Konversationen, aber es hat sich herausgestellt, dass die von einem franz ...

... Kaverimme Fen ja Du ovat kylla ihan mahtavia heppuleita. Hopottavat meille kiinaks jotain ja sit kattovat ihmeissaan, et ettekste nyt noin yksinkertaista asiaa tajua. Ne syo ihan helvetin paljon nuudelia. Syo ne kyl kaikkee ihmeellistakin kanan varpaista alkaen ja tarjoovat aina meillekkin. Ulkonaosta riippuen joko maistan tai en. Annika tietysti ei, jaa paitsi kurkkua. Huomaatteko miten jannaa. Syomista... Kirjoittelen kohan on jotain asiaa. Pistanpa kuvia nyt ainakin.

... much buy the kitchen sink if the urge took you, but we settled for some toiletries and fruit. We were quite tempted by all the furry hats though!! A mammoth walk through the town led us to "Big Ben", which we were expecting to be a copy of the real Big Ben in London.

We are staying at a "Homestay" which is a 6th floor apartment of a Soviet-era apartment block. The Sheraton it certainly isn't, but the family are lovely, and after arriving we discovered ...

After queuing for 1 hour the day before for tickets, we returned today and managed to successfully book tickets to Irkutsk. We ended up spending the rest of the day sitting in the hostel waiting for 3 french people to come back that we had met earlier in the day. We managed at 8pm to weave our way through the metro, which was decorated with marble floors and massive chandeleers, and then met up with another french man, Phillipe, who helped us to ...

After a day of rest in Yekaterinberg, we spent half the day visiting the sights including the place where the Romanovs met their end. This is signified by a small iron cross which has recently been supplemented by a huge gold domed church with impressive gold iconography inside. The City is a mix of old wooden buildings and modern ...

... occasion when Jamie, Julie and Bill crossed the tracks to the other platform to try and buy some vodka when suddenly another train pulled into the station alongside ours trapping them on the other side with our train due to leave at any moment. Luckily, panicking they managed to run around the front of the second train and back to ours. Unfortunately without the vodka.
