So we've made it to Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan and we've decided to spend the night in a hotel and sort some bits out! We've found an internet cafe, hence the proper blog!

If we mission it from here to Tajikistan we might just make our flight home, otherwise we might have to change it to 28th, but we'll see. The trip has been amazing so far, very tiring because we've been in the car so much but we've still managed to meet some locals and take in the culture. Not far to go now distance wise, but the roads become mountainous from here on in so the pace will slow down no doubt.  read more »

Interesting day today, bartering with locals to get fuel. Had to pay double or they wouldn't sell it, still 80p per l though, not too shabby! Night
