In Rybinsk, we finally stayed overnight, invited by this group of friends with 2 babies, we went for a walk along the Volga drinking beer for hours...
Next day, sunday, we got to Yaroslavl. We didn't meet the Couchsurfer we counted on, but a nice couple who invited us to park the bus in the courtyard of their office and chat about stereotypes east-west drinking beer again till late. Yaroslavl is magnificent city with penty of cerkiev near the water and big parks, but it is also very touristic. On monday, Filip looked for a welder to reinforce again the rear of the bus, because the torsion arm had bent again. Meanwhile, we found a park with Elios for his nap, and fortunately it didn't rain. The same evening we got a 4 star Couchsurfing at Slava's in Kostroma. Yesterday morning we found a super cafe, tiny and popular, where to drink tea in plastic cup for 7 roubles (less than 20 euro cents) and where an old man offered Elios a bill of 100 roubles! Then we drove quite a lot, to arrive in the evening at Nizhnij Novgorod, where we're now using free Wi-Fi connexion of a big shopping centre.
The bus will not support the road much longer with such load, we need to unload the spare engine and gearbox, and we are thinking of entering Mongolia through the good road of Ulan-Ude instead of the hard path of the Altai.
