We arrived at 8:16 local time in Yakutsk.
Snow and ice outside, a bus shuttle picked us at the airport up and brought us to a gate. We were wandering, everybody from the bus left the area through the gate. no airport hall, no baggage claim, just like workers leaving their factory after the done work. So we followed, but how to find the sister of Fenya? They found us, Nikon and Lena helped to pickk up the baggage at another place and we went to Fenya's appartment to have breakfast.
Breathing is harder at -32 degrees and it's one of the warm days here, it's what Fenya told us. After breakfast and the sunrise at half past nine, we went to buy a cap for me, a real one. After I tried some which looked like, if an animal is sleeping on my head, I found one which still keeps me warm and looks like a cap. We met Ewa a woman from Oymyakon who can give help with some things, so all in all a very good day. We need to get used to the cold, but so far our clothes are very good although we look like aliens among the yakutsk people.
