bradbrown feeding poons with alcohol. - Gudogay

a night of booze, love and a dog called hannes.

on a cold winterday me and a few friends tried to enetr belarus by train.
we were told that we could get a transit visa on the border, but it showed out that we should have obtained one in advance and the friendly border guards, armed with AK47 told us that we would have to take the next train back to lithuania..

being good travellers we didn't moan but got the best out of the situation.
we emptied the local shop for beer and vodka and had a great party at the train station before heading back to vilnius.

a fine dog called hannes.

hannes, the belarus dog.

a local stray dog decided to join us and ate most of hour chips, while we drank beer and vodka.
he looked like such a fine dog that rasmus decided to call him hannes.

Cool stuff; you made the best you could from that refused entry-situation: stayed positive and had fun! I hadn't set yet my feet to BY but I hope someday sooner or later I will be there. PS. 'Tak' for visiting my Vipava page.

Sounds like a great trip. The Belarus Tourist Authority should get you to write their brochures.
