We leave at 6.30 pm after a team reunion in front of the map and some food.
The journey has been very very long...all night long. Our major problem? The battery of one of the 2 Fiat 500 died two times. The solution? Pushing and pushing and pushing...(big exercise!) until 4.00 am, when all exhausted, we stopped at a petrol station and fell asleep in the car. The only one who was awake to check the charging of the battery was Luca...fighting with insects and nasty animals...Just 1 hour of sleep and back again driving. Tired, hungry and a bit histerical...We reach Ufa city at 8 am. The guys (poor them) spent all day to the Garage with a mechanic who kindly fixed both Fiat 500 for free.... How nice were these people!! Finally some luck. In the meantime the girls found a hotel where, instead, they spent all day in bed. At 6.00 pm the team groups up in front of a cup of coffee and have dinner with a Candian and a Polish guy they had just met. Very friendly and of great help to understand the Russian Menu. Happy to have fixed the car the team go to bed looking forward to the following day....
