We got into the border town of Chelm (pronounced 'helm') at about 17.15hrs. As we had been up and about travelling in one form or another since before 3am it was good to finally stop for the day and relax.
Chelm is known by the local Jewish community in their self-depreciating humourous way as 'The Capital of Foolishness' but on a Tuesday night it seemed very quiet. We parked the taxi outside our hotel and wandered into the town, picking a restaurant who wanted to give us a traditional beef meal which was very nice but seemed to incorporate a loaf of bread each.
Then it was an early night ready for an early start. Roll on Ukraine.
