Russia

Summer in St Petes

It's now twenty past twelve and I've only just turned on the lights.

I wear my sunglasses at night

So I can, so I can cut out the midnight sun when I'm trying to sleep.

VDNKh...

...or in other words the Vystavka Dostizheny Narodnogo Khozyaystva SSSR.

Chilling in Moscow

Smiles anyone?

Lake Baikal

20% of the world''s fresh water!

After being stuck in a small box with two equally as smelly blokes for two days where the toilets seemed to be always locked about two minutes before I needed to go it was good to get out into the open.

We started our day with a swim in the ice cold lake and then, apart from a few minutes in the museum learning ''interesting'' facts about the lake, we spent the rest of the day going from meal to meal and bar to bar.

I'm in Irkutsk now and hoping for a livelier nightlife as tomorrow its onto the train for a few days straight.
