my favourite place so far and our barman from last night is being our guide and has sorted our hotel for next two nights in Samarkand. Such an awesome place. Fuel crisis not helpful but apparently will be sorted tomorrow. Brish and Hass bought silly hats.

finally got through the border after hours of crap but no money required. Following a team with a map which is cool- looking for hotel. Different atmosphere here-all the locals are waving and cheering. Awesome buildings.
