Leaving Asia, Europe or whatever Russia is, I'm heading south for some dog and rice...


That's that bit done then. And bloody hell that was a long way! It's funny, it didn't seem that far until I looked at a google map. Probably because it was mostly over land except for the Channel and the Caspian horror show?! Anyway, a quick entry before South Korea for real then...Vladivostok was pretty much what you'd expect a large historic naval/shipping city to be like. I, of course, had two extra days there after fleeing the unspeakably bleak part of Siberia enroute before the big V. Not much to report on the five days here really except that the weather was pretty gloomy and the night before our ferry (cruise ship?) was a stormer! Totally unplanned (aren't they always the best?) all the RTW riders found themselves in a pizza restaurent and what started out as a nice sensible one soon turned into a riot! A group of russian bikers known as 'The Iron Tigers' joined us too and it's fair to say that any more fun and the police would probably have been called at some point! I'll post a pic or two when I can nick Grant's camera (chief lunatic). I ended up in club 'Arena' in search of some trance but unfortunately didn't find any. Only some old school type tunes that were 'housed up' halfway through. Roll on Seoul...
