GEORGIA:
The last of our days in Irkutsk, not such an early get up today, due to the fact that there is about nothing to do in Tulun, our next destination, so no point arriving at the hotel early! We departed at about 8:30. We made our way to the local petrol station to fuel up for our 407km cruise.
We have to work out how much fuel we would like to purchase before it goes in the tank. So we worked out some money and Maurice and I made our way to the desk, and asked for a diesel fill up.
We did not get a good first impression of 'The Dragon', she was a bit furious. Gave us a free water which we thought we had paid for so we refused to take it until the roars came out, we made an act to take it and leave!
I then received a receipt that you give the gas lady, she fills up our vehicle.
They can’t resist not wearing high heels in Russia where ever they go. So this chick was wearing shitty overalls with some mint high heels? Not cool?
Filled our tank but we had some left over that we were either gonna put in the Jerry Cans or put the rest in Murray's truck. So we did and the Russian chick understood us very well. Until this bloody Dragon comes out and has a massive roar at the gas lady, Dragon had realized that we were all chuckling at her tehe ^_^.
The gas lady took it well and had smiles arrayed upon her face, The Dragon lady left. Then came back for a second time! She must have massive balls now, she scowled at one of us, she thought she was losing money and that her little gas chick was being too generous to us, she pulled a couple of faces and gave me a squint, not cool. I'ma waste her!
After de Petrol station we set of on the road!, we made a little stop at a café almost half way to the hotel, we had numi foods, cold chicken , pickled veges and that! So numi right now, also with non recommended toilets, had a look, and a spew - not so good. Also meet some people from Novosibirsk 4x4 club, they had just driven around lake Baikal, very noice people, they wanted to know a lot about our trip too, so map on car very handy to show. Also wanted a group photos with our group and theirs.
Set off on the road again, very noice senery, beautiful spots, with wild purple flowers, took a couple of photos very cool.
Arrived at hotel, shittiest one of all times, its alright though, had a walk around the little town, mainly for a patisserie for Murray and Ross - into their cakies a lot. We made a trip to the local super market, we have to buy dinner since there are no restaurants in the town where we are staying. We had another numi feast just like lunch, fresh chicken legs, with numi bread swirls and some little coleslaws, and finished off with a banana and date cake thing, I no eat, because I avoid most fruity cakes! Blaaah
Found out there was a sauna! Yippee! So we asked the lady kindly to have a look, not very big but good enough. She had to turn it on so took about an hour to heat up. Ross paid for an hour for anyone to use so decided I would give it a try. Even though I was to 'lala pants' to go in by myself with him! Spent 2 minutes and was sweating like a puppy, 84 degrees! Blaah. So we went in and out to the cold shower and back in, was very nice, and funny! I fink I might need to purchase yes.
