The 3,150 m long Lefortovo tunnel in Russia, (near Poland) is the longest in-city tunnel in all of Europe. It is nicknamed “The Tunnel of Death”. See for yourself why. There is a river running over the tunnel and water leaks through in some areas. When the temperature reaches nearly 0°C like it does during the winter in Russia, the road freezes and becomes as slippery as . . . well . . . ice. The result is the attached video which was taken during a single day with the tunnel surveillance camera. Congratulations to the dual-carriage bus driver - imagine the passengers in the back! What a ride!!

Thanks to Janneman who mailed me this a few weeks ago!

So in Holland it’s tradition to frie oliebollen (doughnut balls) on the last day of the year. When I was still in Holland I used to frie the doughnut balls at my parents place.
Here in Berlin this tradition continues, so last Sunday I got up early and started the “oliebollen party”.
Here’s the result after 4 hours of frieing on our balcony:
