Ulan-Ude, Russia

day 1, busy day today so started off with a lie in, arrived at border just in time for lunch, arghh! Made it up to ulan ude with serious cooling probs! After a lot of topping up we chill with sergey; a rus lorry driver who gave us bread, tea and advice never to drive the cab again, or it would explode! We thought it over in a 24hr cafe until we realise the chairs would make perfect beds zzzz.
