We let ourselves go well with sushi - the latest trend in Ruskia
And again the dear good old Lenin, really find it in every corner
walking in Yekaterinburg - the sun feels good :-)
Our luxury cabin at the hot stewardess Julia
Andrej our "Anglo-russian"
... just to dream
A train ride is fun, a Zufgahrt which is nice - never boring :-)
Julia in action, look at the clothes to the conductor, can there be DB what abschauen ;-)
20.55 Moscow time, clock, clock 22.55 Yekaterinburg time, wagon number 11, number 7 and 8 in Kupe, which is a four-bed compartment, approximately 3m ² ... climb Andy Verity and the train to Novosibirsk. Such was the plan! Yes, we were sitting in front of exactly 44 hours with a 71 year old granny, physics teacher and Andrei, as here, approximately one out of two Russian words, business man and our angel, managers, waiters and vodka mitllerweile friend. Novosibirsk is now well behind us, we are still sitting on the train, but now at number 1 and 3 included in the "luxury suite" of the real hot housekeeper Julia, a compartment all alone for us two, hidden before the Russian police, as stowaways. Taking a trip on the train seems to be no end, even a life journey. 55 hours train ride to Irkutsk, our new goal, an experience which we certainly never forget! Hard to describe what one since this all goes through your mind a lot ... but above all one feels a sense of satisfaction! The landscape draws for hours past a, forests, small villages, the sun sets, beautiful ... yes really peaceful ... drinkt you, you are talking, reading and again I realize how good it is, what a privilege we have to be allowed to travel as to meet such nice people and learn so much new. Andrei has now left us, a genuinely nice guy. After 30 hours of train travel in such a small space you learn to know each other quickly and it was like a piece of family on the train have to ... we have so much on Russia, the culture, experience life there, have Spongbob ludo played to him by Germany told and listened to music ... as Andy would say: ". We ham again perfect and helped hammer out a part of the Russian-German friendship," "Exactly," I say only because, "as always, eh :-). 19:35 in Irkutsk, I'll get back. Meanwhile, we are on comfortable beds in a really nice hostel in the heart of Irkutsk. The trip of our lives, 55 hours on the train ... I is the 10m ² rooms at once before so big and somehow I lack the rattle of the train ... oh I think slowly we are no longer ticking normally. No wonder we have crossed 5 time zones ... verspult arrived in Irkutsk, and all so unreal, 2 Russians in front of the train ". Good morning, Andy and Verena" Olga and Viktor, like there was so much a typical Olga and a Viktor presents typical, "dawej Dawaj" it sounds from her mouth, so go go go's on ... our Russian is getting better :-) ... and trot Andy and I know the 2 unknowns behind to no what happens to us .. . after a few Russian-English word Jump came out that Andrei, our angel from the train, they sent us has to be received from friends like him ... which manages everything from Hostel to exchange ticket and bus ticket to Iceland Olkhon on Baikal for us ... oh well ... so heartily Andy'd like to say now: ". We ham again hammer out perfect," "Exactly," I say only because, "as always, eh :-)
