Back on the train after a nice day in Yekaterinburg. Drove to a place where Europe meets Asia and there was a monument there also saw a place where many victims of Russia programs were buried. 180000 fro this town of 1 million people. Saw a marvellous stadium built for the FIFA games of which four were played here. The town seems bustling and energetic. There are six months of winter here. October until April. We were given a box lunch mid way and then stopped at a Starbucks where I had a latte and enough time to check emails but no news. We also had a great little musical show which was fun. They had many unusual instruments and some were given to the audience to play adding to the fun. Back to the train for lunch.  At 3:30 but I’m full. Dinner will be 7:30 and tonight we put our clocks ahead another 2 hours. Altogether we go through 9 different time zones. Today busy again with lots of walking but dinner was interesting when we found out we were in the class of passenger who had no choice with meals. One gal we sit with paid $31,000.00 she has single supplement and is it Bolshoi class. One above ours.
Ticks us off.
Added two hours to our clock today and tomorrow Also. Wow. It’s been awhile since I was up at midnight before.
