We drove from Mariupol all the way to Yalta, then russia. We did not have a phone signal so we had to drive by map. We took a canister of gas with us because we did not want to stop anywhere. On the way we heard explosions, it was scary. I saw ruined cars and the Mariupol bridge after it was bombed. We got stopped at a block post and they did not let my dad into russia at first. After 1 day we were able to get into russia.
