Khiva
Today we officially bought the entrance tickets for Khiva which gives us access to the twenty some odd historical sites in the town. There were swarms of Uzbeki tourists today, all of whom were very eager to chat and practice … Continue reading
Moynaq
What an unbelievably long day. We woke up around 3 am due to jet lag. We had arranged for our driver to pick us up at 5 am and we began the 2.5 hour trip to Moynaq. The roads were … Continue reading
Tashkent- Day 2
Last night we didn’t account for the possibility of our beloved food stalls being closed at night. We were lucky to find one guy still selling some bread and another lady who had some salami in her shop and had … Continue reading

African Adventure- Day 80
Nouakchott has been full of surprises. I was partially expecting a desolate, sandy town with nothing modern about it. The guide book made it sound as such; no atms, no restaurants, or supermarkets. The sandy part was certainly true but … Continue reading
African Adventure- Day 79
After 58 nights in our tent, something was bound to break at sometime. As we were packing up, one of our 3 rods cracked and poked through the fabric. It is still functional and should still last for a while … Continue reading
African Adventure- Day 68
Our little rooms in Jangjangbureh (Georgetown) became terribly uncomfortable as soon as the power went off for the night. The heat and mosquitoes arrived at exactly the same moment as the fan was keeping both at bay. We had an … Continue reading
