Ukraine!

Hi Guys!

 Just a quick update from a web cafe in Odessa. Its a been a interesting few days out on the road, after an amazing night in Vama Veche on the black sea Ed was releived of her handbag full of camera's, phones and cards by a friendly local. Its rubbish but these things happen and we're getting on with it, the only thing we cant get back is the photos from Czech out and Budapest, which is pretty gutting.

Anyway, we're up in the ukraine now after some minor turmoil with the boarder guards. Turns out they arent joking about paying bribes, if you don't they literally go through everything you have. It took us close to 4 hours to cross, while the team behind us had 20 eur spare and they made it through in 20 mins! We also had a brief stint (> 100 metres) in Moldova for which we paid 30 eur insuarnce!

Its all good fun though and we"re looking forward to the night in Odessa then a long drive up to Kiev tomorrow before making for Russia!

 

See you guys soon!
