…to sort a few things out.
A few weeks ago I flew to Moscow for a couple of days and from there, caught the train to Beijing (stopping off for a few nights in Ulanbator, Mongolia along the way). The journey itself was perfect and pretty much exactly what I needed.
To put things in perspective: over the past month I’ve jogged around Red Square in the morning snow, galloped across the Mongolian desert in the afternoon sun and – thanks to a midday downpour – got soaked to the skin deep within the Forbidden City. ‘Spectacular’ doesn’t quite do it justice.
There’s much to catch up on [and a fair amount of moleskinerie to write up] but for now, it’s good to be home.
The brief flood of Twitter by your Pixelpipe feed gave people who follow you on Twitter gave people a clue James 🙂 Welcome back, hope you’re back to your normal entertaining and informative self ? You’ve been missed !!

I know man, that was such a pain! Ah well…
And thanks 🙂
Glad to see you’re back. Sounds like the trip was *just* what you needed.
I’d love to see the forbidden city. Hopefully next year…
