We had a little adventure going back to the ship. We were supposed to be back at 5:30. Our guide thought it was 5:45. Not too serious, but traffic was heavy and we had a ways to go. We came roaring up to the gate of the port and the gate didn't open. Igor backed up and went to gate 2. That didn't open either. It was now 5:25 and we were supposed to go through Russian customs! The driver and the guide just sat there and waited. No little toot of the horn, no getting out and tapping on the window, no nothing. Finally, Igor gave a tiny little apologetic beep and the gate finally opened. Only one customs window was still open. We all made it through and onto the boat. I think that they closed the doors behind us.
Ana and I were too tired to go to dinner, so we ordered room service and sat with our feet up. Sebastian, our cabin steward came in and we asked him to just make the animal while we watched. He said that he knows about 50 animals. Each day all the stewards are told that day's fold and that at the beginning of our cruise they were the easy ones. He likes it better now because they are more complicated. He was very cute showing us the elephant.
We watched the pilot leaving the ship.
And then we went to bed.
