Tears and Towropes

Reached the ukraine last night after four relatively smooth days, having driven through france, germany, holland and polland. Only mishap was related to finding an errant sponge in the engine which caused the roo to break down on a roundabout and much hilarity. Now staying with Jon's family in law in Vimmitsa being plied with vodka, caviar and gawdy coloured cakes. Kamikazee driving by log lorries and Ladas, jars of pickled cherries being sold on the side of the road. Today we are heading for the black sea for some coastal camping. Next stop Russia.
