Day 6 & 7 - Volgograd
Day 7 in Russia!
Today we arrived in Volgograd by means of bus. The ride took us 1 day and 9 hours, so day six was completely lost in travel.

The coldest it was, was -25 but with the wind it had to be -30 at least. We wrapped up warm which included 6 top layers, 3 bottom layers, 2 scarfs, 2 gloves and 2 hats!
