Reunions, introductions, and goodbyes

(This one was taken by Tonia's mum but it's in here to help tell the story...) John's car couldn't be taken into Russia after the departure of his team-mate, so we donated it for use by an orphanage, with help of my friends here, in Chernihiv, near Chernobyl, Ukraine. There are some ongoing customs issues, but the key thing to know is that our cars in Ukraine don't count as cars for customs purposes — they are "sports inventory", and this means it's not a problem to leave them there. Only wish that we, the Adventurists, or the Irish embassy had been able to extract this info from the Ukrainian customs a little quicker.
