Woke up and decided to leave Kazan' the next day doing a biathlon-like 'penalty loop' t
o the Mari El and Chuvash Republics. 
Spent the morning with the boys in the flat contacting some Hospitality Club people to set up some hosting in Yoshkar-Ola and Cheboksary, the respective Republic capitals. By late morning the rain had cleared up and Timur and I headed into town to give me a more thourough historic walking tour of the center. After about an hour, we headed to the 'best Tatar cafe in the world' and had a late delicious soup-and-meaty-mushroom lunch. We met up with Timur's girlfriend and then walked down to the port area with nice vista of the Volga river. I jumped onto a bus and then headed back to Adel's to pick up my phone that had been left the day before in the haste of my departure. Went back to Timur's flat and then called up Visa to get them to submit another emergency credit card request to SFCU (which they apparently did). Jumped back into my cubbyhole on the porch and snuggled in for another 8 hours of somewhat blissful sleep.
