we're just 400 miles from the Mongolian border. The car is still running but we're getting tired now. Looking forward to a cold beer in UB :-D

We're in the town of Kresnersk about 3 days from Mongolia. Staying in the best hotel tonight for 70 pounds because we're worth it :-D

this town is a nightmare to navigate. We're heading north to Tomsk to hopefully get a room for the night, them east again :-)

It took 5 hours to get out of Kazakhstan and back into Russia, but it's worth it to be back in this lovely country of good roads and lovely people :-)

not getting a car transit document at the border, cost 3 hours and £100 at a police check point. better than the 5 months in jail they were offering.
