Bussing it

When the weather's good and we don't have too much to carry, it's nice to walk. Otherwise, we take a bus.


Catching a bus in Sakhalin is an experience in itself. Most of the buses that serve the city are 15-seater minivans, and they are numbered with a list of their stops, or a circuit map, on the door. The 45 takes us to the Chinese Markets, Grace church, and home. The 16 will end up at the mental hospital. We can catch the 92 or the 63 to the airport; and to go to church on Sundays we can take the 15, 16, 81 or 105.

Good on ya, 81!
