Can you please share your travel plan/itinerary/hotels etc with me?? we r keen.... also , did you make the bookings through a tarvel agent etc?

Datong great wall
Your blog bought back great memories for me. Visited that area some years ago and did go out to see the Great Wall at Datong. We also had mixed messages about the state of the wall and finally hired a driver to take us there. He dropped us at a very unimpressive section of the sall that was very damaged and falling down and pointed towards the hills and said "walk half an hour" and we did - what an amazing sight - the wall snaking off as far as the eye could see - just the two of us standing on the hill - thanks for provoking that memory for me. Just come back from Mexico and Cuba - both great countries to travel in - We did the Copper Canyon train ride in the north of Mexico - great experience. Happy travels.

Hi Beata and Tomek, I like this entry a lot, thanks for providing valuable info on all things Transsib. Still keen on doing it one day. Cheers, Jens

I enjoyed these too!
I tried to read most of them as I hiked up. I like the one you selected as your favourite too, but there were lots that made me stand and reflect. Didn't have snow to contend with though! It must have arrived just after I left.

love this photo
It's as simple as that - I love this photo. I love the movement and it's one of those photos where you are lucky to be in the right place at the right time and the birds fall in to the right patterns at the exact moment the monk walks ahead when you click the camera. Those are always the best photos and the hardest to get. Nice one.

Brings back memories of my trip to Kiev last year. Happy travels!

Great!
Very interesting story and great photos....all of them!
