it has been a wild day of river crossings and tracks that just lead off in all directions. After being told we needed to be towed across the rivers, we smashed the yaris across amid a swarm of crazy children. with nothing but a brass compass we found the town no problem and have paid 4 bucks to spend the night in a motel. Kick ass!
Pavlodar Province, Kazakhstan
with shocks full of vegetable oil we continue the night drive to Semey.
Astana, Kazakhstan
after 5 days of off roading, pothole avoiding, dirt track driving, meeting up with another two teams and having all our booze confiscated we smashed our back shocks and have spent all day trying to find new ones. Turns out it's cheaper and easier to fix them! Onwards!
Atyrau Province, Kazakhstan
bed down next to the "road" out of makat. Looks fucking impossible, but then you should have seen what we did last night from aktau to shetpe! Hooray little yaris! Xx
Aqtau, Kazakhstan
after having driven to Ashgabat and spent two days messing around with embassy's to sort visa to Uzbekistan we find out that the consulate in Istanbul who should have issued it originally were lazy and hadn't done anything they said so we've had to go back the way we came and head north into Kazakhstan. A long long drive ahead awaits.
Baku, Azerbaijan

Lost, Turkey
took the stupedest route along the north coast of the black sea, six hours, 185 miles. Getting up early to make up for lost time. Xx
Akçakoca, Turkey
Bedding down for the night having left Istanbul. Handbrake fixed for 20 dollars with a cup of tea, a lovely smile, engine check and he showed us how to do it ourselves should anything happen with them again. I'm feeling well again as well. Yay!@
