Ferghana Province, Uzbekistan
Went to Aral Sea and sure enough we saw some rusty boats,it's amazing how much the sea has shrunk due to man! We took our frontier stove and had a lovely cup of tea and enjoyed the view. We then decided we're going to Kyrgyzstan(be rude not to).We started heading back the way we came,got to Nukus thinking petrol wouldn't be a problem,how wrong we was. Bought 10l from some guy and set off for Tashkent worried about the fuel situation but it seemed the further away we went,the more common petrol became.Arrived in Tashkent changed up some $ and started heading for t ** some text is missing **

So today we left turkmenistan and entered Uzbekistan, customs on the turkmen side wanted more dollar ($45) from us as our insurance ran out yesterday, finding unleaded here is hard work due to the fuel shortage had to result to buying some on the black market (92 octane so the van isn't running as well as it did) seems to be ok though. Just enjoying a evening beer near the Aral Sea before heading there tomorrow morning to see some rusty boats in the sand
