PPC Lotta »
Climbing checkout. 're Rolling quickly. 5 miles later, we see the road a roadside grave, drive up, read. It found its end in the 91-year European musical group "Molotov Cocktail" was returning after a concert of Kirovsk. In a couple of meters of another tomb Russian. Probably from the time of behind it, no one cared to understand who and what is not possible.
Before lunch, we drive sorokovnik. Lunch by the river current Lotta from Finland. Probe the water - it is unrealistic to warm. Impossible to resist the temptation. Undress and jump into the water. I do a couple of dozen strokes. Mlyn, the river is the same trick that Akkim: fast flow, not visible from the lack of shoals. Turn around and see how rapidly rushes by the bank. Quickly rowed to shore in shallow water and then made their way to the place of call.
dinner, we go further. To Murmansk from here more than two hundred kilometers. I had planned to spend the night with Bina and morning from the checkpoint sgolosovat surprise to Murmansk. But I was overwhelmed vague doubts: the day we saw almost two dozen cars. With this "rapid" mashinopotokom I can vote in a car for very long. Look around Congresses from the road, hoping to find what else the fishermen or tourists on a suitable machine. Finally find the fishermen in a van. They do not know when go to Murmansk - either today or tomorrow morning. Just in case tomorrow morning, I suggest themselves to him in the car. We go with Bina on the borderline, pass sign warning of entry into the border zone.
last 7 kilometers before the border is a reconstruction of the road. The way trough here and there fresh asphalt, but mostly it is bad or average hard-packed gravel. Go for it hard even for me, Bean goes on foot. A few, not the most pleasant kilometers brightens communicating with the workers.
end of the road. Barrier beyond which I will not be allowed, after 100 meters. We are at a gas station, where must be a store. Shop ... have been built but still closed. Next booth where you can buy a bottle of soda and even some some nonsense. No firewater, or cigarettes is not here. Even then you can fill up with petrol, that we sort of pointless. Binet buy soft drink. While we stand with a troubled look, fit road worker, and immediately, realizing that we passed the shop invites you to a chicken, "Come to us, we have just the chicken is ready." I refuse but the hospitality of these people, slightly improves the view of the human breed.
Looking for a place in the night. As luck would have anything nice next to no, but come back, it means that Binet would have stormed all this gravel again. Even swear a little about it. Bean irritated my style climb up on the night in the jungle, and not to sleep beside the road. Yield, find a place and get up to 50 meters from the road near the lake. Our last joint dinner, finish off Bininu
vodka bought in Verhnetulomskom.
fucking Polar Day! Hours of 10 pm, on the road, directly opposite our parking, the workers begin ukatyvat rubble. Machines come with crushed stone, with a roar poured it, then it enters into a skating rink. The process of collecting, sometimes walking past the tents Bina, I pin up "Bean, you're still awake?". Workers settled down only 4 in the morning.
track thirteenth day
Again Murmansk.
Our final in this journey of a joint breakfast. Sad. Fees. We leave very early, as fishermen, to whom I entered on board, had planned to leave around 11-12 hours, and I have to go another ten miles. While packing to us drove down the truck which hauls gravel for road reconstruction. Conversation. It turns out that during the polar day, they see nothing wrong in that work at night, if only the weather was good. So what are "night shifts" - not a rarity.
do with Bina sharing photos on the memory and goodbye. Sad.
I'm bright enough food for the gravel to a parking lot of fishermen. Come - parking is currently empty. Sitting on the fifth point does not make sense, machines can never be. Edu back in the direction of Murmansk. Track Lotta, at least until Verhnetulomskogo, all equipped with kilometer posts. I have a small wind in the back, go easy, start to assume these posts. Quickly counted 50 columns. All-time pass only half a dozen cars. Of these, only one I could boot up - if she stopped. This was a postal van. Others were even without luggage. The truth is sometimes drove past the truck vozyaschie rubble on the scene, but I already know that they are not going to Murmansk, and riverine. In the morning I received an invitation to board, before turning on a river (100 km. way), but for some reason declined. Now, many drivers of such trucks, drove past me honking. With some I've talked about the border, some of us there just saw last night and this morning. Travels very easily.
chided about the 70th mile column, thinking about lunch. Then decides to screw the
before turning on a river (he is turning a nickel), and where to dine, and at the same time
vote machine. Eat on the go with dried apricots.
pass the turn on a river, looking at his watch and horrified: in 4-something hours, I leg it a hundred miles! Affected the breeze in the back and the almost complete absence of food in bags. In general, run "Lotta" built for speed.
I began to look for a river, where you can settle down to dinner, not very far from the road. In this point, I see riding in the same direction minivan. I vote, I suggest the money immediately with a stock, so no bargaining (much like tonight climb into the bath in Murmansk and a few extra hundred play no role). I take on board. The mention of money is clearly confusing the driver. In general, on the Kola What is unusual monetary relations - the money given to very tactfully. threw
great inside, where there is a broken bike Suzuki. It turned out the guy
rider, rode his bike to pick up after the accident. Quickly found a common language
, the road to Murmansk has flown by. Parted before the new bridge
(the car went into Cole). At the end of the driver asked me how my case, if help is needed and whether I need to borrow money. Took money from me only after I assured him that I have everything is OK, and even planned a little spree. Again pass the new bridge (the third time this trip) better in the city center, where they plan to start searching for apartments. We reached the center, pull out a piece of paper on which are written before the trip naguglennye Phones "Flats at night." On the second call I have agreed to an apartment on Karl Marx. After 15 minutes I was on the spot. Odnushka on the first floor, cozy. Having three thousand three days, and another 500 rubles a deposit for the keys, I am not without difficulty, seen off Aunt, which I rented this apartment. Aunt really wanted to chat, and I wanted to have to wash off and jerk in the store for all sorts of delicious things to eat and jump into the bath. I wash my face and a little quote myself order (To the extent possible, given that two weeks, I mock the rain, collected over the dust and thus never erased). Wash
necessary since I'm covered with a layer of salt: today the hottest day that I saw on the Kola
. This summer weather, 25 degrees probably. It's hot.
jog to the store. Go find "Evroros" does not work, buy the first part in what that silly little shop on the hill, from where the liquor only beer and generally assortment of lame. Then find "Evroros. "Evrika" the one where three months later, in September, Medvedev sold a loaf of rye bread .
Vinische, beer, fish, salads ... everything at once, and many ... vobschem happiness.
washed our clothes, wash himself did not have enough power - Cuts on the couch.
very long day.
further describe in detail a couple of days makes no sense, I suppose. Happy walking, or slept in the evening jug and kishkobludil front of the TV. Toured the book, I bought something to read, ran into the local lore, see the "mammoth".
Last Day bought the fish home (trout, salmon, halibut - from trout and salmon I am delighted, halibut did not like). In a train compartment all - a great campaign for a ride home. A guy with a girl about my age, my aunt a little older. Jug all the way back. Once we even went out to calm the conductor, Tipo, we all carriage bed do not give. My most slow train Murmansk-Moscow: drove 40 hours. But cheap.
House. Hellish hot.
summarize ... As well, although it nafig. A trip like and that's it. And I still have two reports vystrugivat necessary. If something is important to remember dobyu in kammentah. Who issues - Do not be shy. Comment - I love to read later.
