7/8

Took 4 hour bus to Novgorod.  Provincial town has 2 hotels, and as we discovered, only 2 restaurants.  But the river is beautiful and we chanced upon an Orthodox service in a 1000-year-old church in the middle of the kremlin.

Today is a day of travel -- train back to St. Petersburg and then train to Moscow and then the Trans-Siberian, so no more internet until I get into Shanghai.  Wish me luck!
