Russian Far East
June 23 - July 3

From Japan I flew to Vladivostok. For almost 2 weeks I worked in the Russian Far East. Incredible progress! This area is truly impressive. Despite what is trumpeted by Western propaganda, Russia is doing extremely well, and the visit to the provincial capitals tells more than if one just stays in Moscow or St. Petersburg.

Marvelous city of Vladivostok. The end of Trans-Siberian Railroad, 9288km from Moscow!
