On the subject of long train journeys, Satur...@Paul<br />On the subject of long train journeys, Saturdays' Times contained an article about the Wigan-Pyongyang Express. A 9000km train journey departing from Wigan for Pyongyang via London, Paris, Warsaw, Moscow, Ikutsk, Ulaanbaatar and Beijing. The guided tour includes visits to the graves of Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao and both of the deceased North Korean dictators. It sounds a snip at GBP 3,195/ticket.<br /><br />The article writer wryly remarks "Some would say, however, that visiting such places comes at a moral cost". :)<br /><br />But I wonder if one would meet some interesting fellow travelers? ;)David In Waleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12442479878591522298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891289711377156224.post-26048315354364264062019-06-02T20:51:15.167+03:002019-06-02T20:51:15.167+03:00Thor Heyerdahl's Search for Odin in Azerbaijan...Thor Heyerdahl's Search for Odin in Azerbaijan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thor_Heyerdahl#"The_Search_for_Odin"_in_Azerbaijan_and_RussiaPolitical Refugee from the Global Villagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523068770529814044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891289711377156224.post-88887246303456468672019-05-13T15:20:45.852+03:002019-05-13T15:20:45.852+03:00I am still at least as curious about Granada as I ...I am still at least as curious about Granada as I hear you were of Baku & what might come next; still, the city is much smaller than a village I lived in until last year requiring to be kown one neighbour at a time...
