A race against time! Would I arrive in Moscow in time to get the only train that would take me out of Russia before the midnight April 10th deadline?
This 80yr-old English lady was living a life-long dream: flight to Shanghai, train to Beijing and straight on to the TransSib. Her nephew looked 3 times as exhausted as she did, but that was at least partly due to a touch of Montezuma's Revenge. She was forever collecting 'remedies' from the train attendants and buying stomach-settlers at every stop. During his indisposition, we shared a doubtful meal in the Russian RC and and a couple or five undoubted vodkas.
