Thursday 23rd September
At this stage I have completely lost track of days, we have passed through so many timezones that we have no idea what the current time is. Our limited vocabulary doesn't stretch to asking the time and nobody that I have seen has a watch, there certainly isn't one on the train.
We have taken to keeping track of the various stops the train makes as this gives us some indication if we are able to decipher the station name against the timetable. We have no idea wether the train is currently running to schedule but we figure it's got to be roughly accurate.
We taught Alexander gin rummy today, he had attempted to show Pauline and Tyler a Russian card game but the only rules that we could decipher was that he could put any card down that he liked and nobody else could. Highly entertaining as a spectator but i would imagine that it would be somewhat frustrating fornthe contenders over time.
We just found out that he is actually getting off of the train later this evening so with any luck we may have our own carriage for a little while.
