Getting there, slowly.

Last night in Astana before a long push towards Semey, hopefully border crossing on Sunday.

Istanbul!

Just in case anyone wondered, we're using a DeLorme inReach (non-compatible with the Adventurists tracking site), but if you're wondering how far Gobiyond have got, we're in Istanbul! Having a full day today, then heading eastward tomorrow. Anyway, here's the view from our amazing hotel.
