Repairs, Astana and a Thunderstorm
... so now when fitted it runs clean. Considering the work. 8500Tenge (50AUD) was a bargain.
Still with plenty of time in the day, an absolute monster of a storm besides flooding the streets of Astana had the benefit of giving Blanche a fantastic wash.
Deciding to just do a drive through of Astana and head to the town of Karagandy, this was actually turning into a brilliant day........but of course in true Kazakhstan style we were kicked once more in the ...
A win! Chalk it up...
