Day of fails
So we set off from Khiva and got our wheels straighten, but after around 3 hours of travelling we noticed that we had forgotten our passports...
We turned around to get our passports and then the petrol tank fell out :( after this was fixed by the road, we got back to the hotel and had a few beers...
Basically a waste of a day, but not too bad as we had some beer..
Drove to Uzbekistan
Adrian did a hard push to drive from the door to hell in Turkmenistan all the way to Uzbekistan... it took 2.5 hours to cross over to Uzbekistan, but we are here now :)
Got lost and found it hard to change money, but did so on the black market...
Door to Hell
Matt drove for 5 hours and crashed into a pot hole and dented 3 wheels, so we had to change them on the main highway in 45 degrees weather....
We tried to get to the Door to hell, but Gaail failed in deep sand... TBH it was best she failed at the hill as it only got worse...
The door to hell is really a great sight to see at nighttime, once in a lifetime once...
We travelled with 2 italians to the door to hell which passed us on the way...
Pics to follow..
