DAY 7 - registered
We called Artur, the driver for Oymyakon on Monday. "Only Tuesday from 9am is possible" was the answere. He is coming from Oymyakon to pick us up, so we are going there one day later. Tamara in Oymyakon also knows that we'll arrive a day later than planned. We are still happy that he'll drive because Tuyara asked him to pick up two Germans, we also called him and Artur thought there would be four people to take to Oymyakon. Sorry, for this double communication, but finally we will make it.
After this we decided to ask for registration in the post office. COMPLICATED. We probably need to check in a hotel when we come back from Oymyakon otherwise it's nearly impossible to register here. But good to find ouut before they keep us here to carry on building the "Street of death" to Magadan.
Must be our museum day, so we decided to go to the Museum for northern people of Yakutia, which was nice to see, also the mammoth Dima as a dummy and some skeletons from mom Dima. We got a good overview on the animals which are living here and the people's history. But after 1 hours we got that hot with our clothes in this museum, we needed to leave. We met Semyon, Andrew and another friend, they all study languages in order to become interpreters. What a luck - maybe for future projects in this area. But he will help with the Ewen and Ewenik issue, when we come back from Oymyakon.
The good thing of today is we reached the -41°C here and are heading for -55°C at the "Pole of Cold" from tuesday. To be continued ....
