I'm there

A very quick post to let everyone know I've made it to Russia - complete with my 'lost luggage' which turned up with 45 minutes to spare before leaving Korea. I haven't got bike yet because I need to clear customs with it today. I'm told this is a fearsome process - but everyone also said that about immigration, and in the end she was young, pretty, blond and told me "You are very brave" - what better introduction do you want to a country. Wish me luck - I'll post more in a day or so.

    I liked your introduction to Russia "young ,blonde,pretty" - it matched my own reactions on my first visit there when I'd been expecting female Rambos with a penchant for weight lifting and driving tractors.It was lucky I didn't jump ship!!Looking forward to your future instalments.Dad
