How expensive and how do you get from Denmark to Sweden? How does it compare with travelling through Poland Lithuania etc(visas yuk). Unfortunately the pacific peso A$ does not go far these days. Do you enter Russia at Vyborg from Finland? How do you sleep if the sun doesnt go down?
Grant and Susan the site is ace and to Vincent et al the info has been really helpful.

Hi, from Sweden to Finland you take a ferry in Stokholm to Turku in finland. You can cross the border in Vyborg to Russia. It will take time at the border. Russia police is tricky and time consuming also on the roads. You can sleep using an ailine face mask. Bring it for both of you.
Have a nice trip
