Yesterday was mostly spent by sitting on the train, but according to my plans there are no more daytime travels, or at least no more on the way to Yekaterinburg. I managed to chatch the 6km train from Zahony to Chop (accross the border), i read before the trip on the net that bribing the conductor is very common on this section. But i decided to buy a ticket. I asked the police guy where can i do it (the station building was beyond the police fence), he said: on the train. On the train the conductor just asked for 500 HUF and did not give me any ticket ...
The train ride accross the Charpathians was beautiful, and i had a lot of time to enjoy it coz we rarely reached 5`kms/h :) I did take some pictures but 1: they are not so good 2: there is no usb on this internetcafe computer. So i downloaded one from the same place.
After leaving the mountains the train showed me that it doesn't need mountains to go slowly ... but at least it was in time in Lviv. I had some difficulties with getting to the hostel because i only remembered the street name and that i have to go with tram #1. Tram #1 was not going, and without replacement. So i had a long walk (30mins) from a place where a random bus dropped me.
In the hostel there were only 2 german guys - en route from Beijing to Dresden by bike.
Next post is about Lviv, probably this evening, late.
