kamchatka petropavlosk, russia

We arrived in Kamchatka after a fuel stop in Anchorage on 10/3 after crossing the international date line and loosing a day.
This is erraneously referred often as Siberia but only constitutes part of the peninsula. It has more than 160 volcanoes , 29 of them active which create more than 20 climate zones. I only experienced the cold ones there.
The harbour of Petropavlosk does not freeze over in winter making it an ideal military post now and in the past/ WW2.
We ate lots of fabulous salmon - although I heard some complaints after the 4 th meal. Overall, an experience but not something I want to come back to.
