Brocken Spectre Finale!

In possibly the noisiest sproggle-surrounded seats on a flight, at one point I did have both fingers in my ears whilst staying focused on reading my book. Crossing busy terminals, getting to the hotel yesterday evening was a quiet relief. 

We plumped for Chinese (although would have chosen Russian if we could) before heading off to bed for an early start this morning back up to Leeds.

If you know me just a little, you'll know how exciting getting a photo of this is although not nearly as exciting as an on-land version!

Little Dog took a few sniffs before she trusted that it really was us and she was rewarded with a trip to Salami for being impeccably behaved while we were away.

We've reflected a lot on our magnificent adventure and would love to return, maybe to Moscow, in deepest winter.
