G - Reporting
Getting up before dawn we packed and made our way to the ferry terminal for our trip to the Ukraine and a sad farewell from Russia.
The process went rather smoothly once we realized they needed to measure the truck length before they would sell us a ticket, after that it was an easy check out of Russia and a quick sail over to the Ukraine made quicker by a pleasant chat with Vladimir a translator fro Odessa.
Arriving in Ukraine was easy apart from a bit of a wait there was just one simple form to fill in and we were in.
The 250Km to Yalta was a surprise we had no idea what to expect from the Crimea but what we got was stunning coast line with a rocky hills behind and vineyards and every flat bit of land in-between all very nice.
Arriving in Yalta we picked a hotel out of the Guide book that was overlooking the sea and close to the centre all for $41 result! the day was rounded off with a sea front stroll and dinner in a local Pub.
