The first part of my overlanding across Russia: almost three days on the Rossiya to Ulan Ude.
Not much other than taiga
My daily train-provided meal
Shades of white and grey
One of our many stops
All white outside
Rail car depot
More snow
Birches in the taiga – more white!
More birches…even some sun!
Sun, snow and trees
Another station
Taiga
Some hills in the background
Buildings!
Arriving in a Siberian town
Getting closer…
In the town
Train borscht…appetizing!
Evidence of humans…
Siberian houses
Wooden buildings
More Siberian wooden houses
Check out the painted shutters!
Nearing Ulan Ude
Getting close to my first stop in Siberia!
