Atyrau, Kazakhstan
We're in Kazakhstan!Made it to Volgograd which was well worth the visit and spent last night in Atyrau in Kazakhstan.Made it as far as Beyneu tonight on great roads although apparently tomorrow the fun will start as the road is non existent! Currently in the desert in the middle of nowhere with camels causing traffic jams so hence no major website update but plenty of stories to be told! May not be home for Christmas at this rate!

Odesa, Ukraine
We eventually got through the Ukraine border after a bit of craic with the guards although they did hold us up for 4hrs with Rab having a rather interesting meeting as he is the owner of Sadie!With too much time lost it was decided to drive through the night to make up lost time!
