After a night of rest in Irkustk, we decided to head out to Olkon Island on beautiful lake Baikal. It was about a 6 hour drive to get there in a local "Marshutka" which is basically a minibus, though they must have some sort of magical grippy tyres or something because we were literally driving full speed on solid ice roads!

Moscow was marked km 0 of our train journey across Russia and Irkutsk ...
