Day 33, Kerch strait

Today we got up at 7:00am to visit the Kerch Strait. Today is 4 degrees but there's a lot of wind.We visited the bridge as we were interested in its history. This 4.5 km (2.8 mile) bridge was built in the summer of 1944 after the liberation of Crimean by the Red Army with the materials left on the site by the Wehrmacht. It was destroyed within six months by the ice that flowed due to the absence of breakwaters.
On 25 April 2010, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev signed an agreement to build the bridge. This agreement was cut short by the outbreak of the Euromaidan and Russia's accession to Crimea.
This day we ate at a little food stall in the area. About 7:30pm we go to the hotel El Estrecho, a place we didn't like very much because those who worked here were very poorly educated with the customers.
