Aboard the Trans-Siberian Railway!





The Trans-Siberian Railway is the longest railway in the world. It consists of three major routes.
1) The Trans Mongolian goes from Moscow, Russia to Beijing, China via Ulaanbaatar.
2) The Trans-Manchurian travels through Siberia and Chinese Manchuria to Beijing.
3) The Trans Siberia goes from Moscow to Vladivostok.


How to book a ticket for a journey of a lifetime!


What better way to fill yourself with food than with Russian sandwiches during your travels. They're economical and tasty. Purchase some sliced bread, vegetables, cream, mayonnaise, canned pineapple, and tomato ketchup. To make the sandwiches mix together 1 cup of chopped cooked vegetables such as carrots, peas, and boiled potatoes (peeled) 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 Tablespoons of cream, 1/4 cup of pineapple, and a dash of salt. 

Spread some butter on bread slices than put the vegetable mixture between the bread slices. Add some tomato ketchup for extra taste. 

Now for some Russian words (with English pronunciations)

Yes (da)
No (Nyet)
Please (poZHAlusta)
Thank You (spaSIBO)
Excuse me (proSHU)
Hello (priVET)
