September 23 - Birobidzhan

Having to flee our other apartment may be the best thing that ever happened to us. Tony, Pat, Rachel and Shelly are taking great care of us: They made us peanut butter sandwiches before we went to bed last night and Pat cooked up French toast in the morning. We never had it so good.

They have all been very hospitable and understanding, especially considering our unexpected appearance last night. Hopefully we'll wrap up our writing and editing tonight, so we can upload our material tomorrow morning and make the five o'clock train to Chita. That's if we don't get arrested first.


September 24 - Birobidzhan

We're still here. The transmission went much slower than we anticipated and we missed the 5:00 p.m. train. We'll try for the 10:00 a.m. train tomorrow. We're looking forward to a relaxing two-day train ride to Chita.
