Entered and exited the "country" of Transnistria. The country is a landlocked, self-proclaimed, state situated between Ukraine and the River Dniester, recognized by three nations (Abkhazia, Nagorno-Karabakh and South Ossetia), all of which are also recognized by no one but themselves, and Ken, the guy writing this blog. I had read about this country before arriving, they have their own passports, licence plates, president/dictator, flag (though it does have a hammer and cycle on it, only flag left with one), money, all of which is why they have my support. They almost lost it though, as I found out today, they also have border control check points for both entrance and exit, and since the country is only a couple of kilometers wide, it is a ridiculous pain in the ass. The paperwork to bring Greta in cost approximately 240 Ukrainian Hryvnia ($9) and 45 minutes to process. So close to loosing my support Transnistria, soooo close. Stage Distance: 63mi (104km)
