Day 16, May 13 - Voronezh Rest Day 2

0km - 1038km, cool and rainy, 14C, windy, 0 shots, 0 saunas, 1 lenin, HC

Woke up late again, and had breakfast and tea with the gang. Finished up the Tom Robbins book that I had been reading (one of my fav authors) and got ready to go out into the countryside on an errand with Elena. Spent the next few hours splashing around in the rain out in the boonies, shocking various shopkeepers with my fanterrible Russian language abilities.

Headed back into the city for more tea, and then went to the supermarket to pick up things to make chili. Fortunately, the market had a spice that was approaching chili powder, as well as Tabasco sauce! Make up some semi-firey chili for the 6 of us eating, and then spent the evening chatting away over delicious Argentine Malbec and more unfiltered Ruskie pivo.
