And we're off!

This morning begins an epic train journey across Asia from Beijing to St. Petersburg.  We have a lot of ground to cover over the next three weeks -- 4,735 miles (7,621 km) to be exact.

Our journey begins this morning with a 36 hour leg on the Tran-Mongolian from Beijing to Ulaan Baatar.  After a few nights in Ulaan Baatar and out on the Mongolian steppe we join with the Trans-Siberian to Moscow and St. Petersburg.  We have a lot of ground to cover with quite a few stops planned along the way.  These next three weeks are going to be adventure!
