Arrived in Magadan.

Arrived in Magadan this morning at 1145 after a 8 hour flight from Moscow, The rain was tipping it down and it was very cold and miserable.
There is a bus that takes you the 40km or so into Magadan for about £2 and just about 3 or 4 km outside the city was the old airport with rotting planes and helicopters on the runway, makes you wonder why they moved the new one so far away.
When we arrived at the bus station we were met by Vita and Alex our landlord/lady for the next couple of nights, they took us to get Russian sims for our mobiles and sorted our registration for Russian immigration (you have to register where you are staying within 7 days of arriving in Russia but as we travel through we will register every week or so en route) then gave us a bit of a tour of Magadan and up to the Mask of Sorrow (Skorbi)
The apartment is right in the centre and only a 2 min walk from a super market. Time to plan the routes on the sat navs.
