Some pics from my Trans-Siberian Railway trip in Dec/Jan 2002/3:

First stop in Mongolia:


Red Square, early on New Year's Eve 2002, temperature somewhere in the range -30 to -40 C:


That famous St Basel's cathedral viewed from the Rossiya Hotel:


More to come - I'm just re-organizing where I put my photos up, since the site here changed (I was using the web-space here, but that doesn't appear to be accessible anymore).

Culturally seems strong enough, but I get the rather strong impression of a big divide between the guys on top and the rest, especially out in the rural areas, away from the big cities.

Thank you, Sv. I have to admit that some of these religious buildings can make nice pictures Smile .

Welcome back Bobspence1! Long time no see. Nice photos.


Here is one from Blackpool, UK.
Not a nice town at all, I don't think I will be visiting there again any time soon.

Yeah I got busy, then then site got re-organised, so I had to find somewhere else to host my images for linking to...

Anyway, here's a couple more from Vietnam:

On Halang Bay, near Hanoi:
