Ulaanbaatar, Khan-Uul, Ulaanbaatar
At the unofficial finish line !!! We're nearing the end...
Ulgii, Ulgii, Bayan-Ulgii
WE MADE IT TO MONGOLIA !!!
Day 40: Almaty, Kaz.
Hallelujah, we're here. Seems we managed to drive so close to the Kyrgyz border on our way to Almaty that we actually entered the country a few times. Also turns out we found a brand new road NOT on the map, and that saved us almost 2 hours in the end. (Still had to pay up a bribe or two.) New lesson: trust the shiny road signs !
Kyzylorda, Syrdariya District, Kyzylorda Province
Took a pit stop in Aral and bumped into BotchJob at a bar. Convoyed to find the rusted boats - lots of fun. Almaty tomorrow !
Aktobe, Aktobe Region
Survived the most abominable 500km stretch of pot holes in all of Kazakhstan. Everything hurts but we're done ! On to Almaty !
Aktau, Munaily District, Mangystau Region
54 hours after we arrived at the ferry port, we made it across the Caspian Sea. Strangely, we'll miss the ferry life !
Alat, Baku
Been waiting at the port for 6 hours nearing midnight now, praying we get on tonight's ferry !
Shikhly I, Gazakh
A 4-hour border crossing later, we are closer than ever to the ferry that will take us to Kazakhstan ! Here we go !
Tbilisi, Didi digomi, Tbilisi
Got to meet up with Flying Dutchmen and WanderDust. So great to reunite with teams after weeks of going rogue.
Posof, Posof, Ardahan
Slept by the side of the road under the most extraordinary blanket of twinkling stars. Now to the border of Georgia.
Eskil
From Norway to Mongolia.
