Ust-barguzin to Ulan-Ude

Our town, Ust-barguzin on a Saturday morning.
Last night was a homestay so in the morning Nina our host a retired Cooking Teacher whipped up a traditional Russian breakfast of kasha with sultanas, fried bread buns with cheese and cold meats.
Then off. Matt has to check out some possible hotels for clients, then onto Olga's for lunch.
Olga is the French speaking daughter of a former soviet politician so enjoys her summer house with family.
Olga often entertains foreign tourists and is bit of a story teller.
Next and final stop, Ulan-Ude and visit Russia's most sacred Buddhist site the spiritual capital if Buddism in Russia. After decades of persecution Stalin approved its initial construction in recognition of the contribution made by these people in The Great Patriotic War.
