Distance today: 0.0 km (Accumulated: 12802.0 km)
Country: Russia

2004-10-12. Second rest day in Vladivostock.

The flight for Japan departs tomorrow so it?s also our last day in Russia.
We take care to enjoy and remember the friendship and hospitality which we

the days by local sports comities; in hotels, schools, orphan children?s
houses, hospitals, theatres, city administration buildings, private homes
of world class athletes. Our total accommodations expenses for
accommodation in Russia - all included - were 100 roubles pr. person. @
That?s 3 dollars (not pr. day; but for the total of 7 months!!!!).
