Goodbye TST- Hello TMT (trans mongolian)

Today is the day we sadly say goodbye to Russia but excitedly say Hello to Mongolia ( well sometime in the night).
We have swapped the Trans Siberian for the Trans Mongolian.
We have upgraded today to 1st class as we knew we get locked in the carriage for hours at the borders so we didn’t want to share that- no stinky and snorey for us tonight!
We have swapped our Russian Provodnistas for Chinese attendants in dainty white lace gloves.
The carriages are older again with lots of satin and tassels- I think I prefer the Russian leatherette!
Mongolia here we come - that is if we get through the borders hassle free!Leggi altro
