Whereas we are entering our 3rd day on train, this morning a stop has boosted the moral of the troops. For the first time of the journey, an army of 'baboushkas' has welcomed us on the platform with fresh food: from pirojkis (some kinds of pies) to pelmenis (sort of dumplings) passing by beet roots and potatoes. We are not going to open dehydrated noodles for a change, and that's why we celebrate with a breakfast served with vodka. Our Russian travel neighbours seem to appreciate our rapid integration to the Russian customs.
The general atmosphere is getting more relaxed, even the conflict between Monica and Filip has calmed down.
