DAY 17 - Last full day on the train

We were sticky, sweaty, stubbly (well most of us), and keen to get off for our showers... not long to go now. So the playing of cards, and the viewing of traditional Russian villages with wooden houses continued. Increasingly, we were hearing Russian "Eurovision" style music on the loud speakers at the longer stops. Most of the day was passed playing cards - where Claire and I firmly took the lead!

Due to the lack of Internet access, I am behind on my blog. Watch this space for updates on what happened when we did a traditional homestay in a village by Lake Baikal.
