Another early morning to catch the 0825 bus into Vladivostok center to pull out a whole bunch of cash to pay the shipper man and buy a ticket!!
Back at the airport, the bikes were boxed......they actually did a good job....although, the weight we are now shipping is 644kg!!! In total it has cost over 3000 pounds!!!!
We walked over to the terminal...the bikes were finished with and would be in LA by July20.
At 1543, we asked if we could catch the 1620 flight to Seoul and then LA....the man said YES!!! I ran to the hotel and checked out, John handed a whole wad of cash over and by 1626 we had taken off!!!! 43 minutes it took!!!!
The flight was lovely......great food and a lovely plane....nothing like the Russian one we caught earlier in the week.
Now we are in Seoul airport waiting for our connecting flight to LA.
It was a bit sad to leave Russia.....we will not miss the continual 'No, that is not possible' whenever you ask any question. We definately will miss the people and the randomness of the place!!
Dos Vedania Russia.....Hello to the USA!!!!
