Had to arrive two hours early, of course, for the international flight out of SeaTac, right? Flight from Seattle to Frankfurt is 10 hours, for any who are curious - and that is ******* the rear end no matter what seat you get! A few hours to get to Terminal 2 at Frankfurt to catch the Uzbekistan Airlines flight to Tashkent and off we go again - for another 6 hours. Taken together, 20 hours in airports or on planes - phew. Boy was I glad to get here! Wonderful treatment upon arrival, though, t...

Fun, we had an earthquake this afternoon some time after 1pm! (oops correction, it was 1:27) It was short, about 5 seconds, but felt pretty strong - I wonder if we'll hear an announcement? Everyone commented that it was an unusually loud one so many feared there had been a big explosion in the building. It sounded like a BIG train running through the middle of the building, and felt like that, too. It's my first earthquake - I always said I'd like to experience that. My buddy who was in his r...

Well, sometimes it seems like 90% of my job is administrative stuff and only 10% is out doing cool stuff! But really, the admin stuff can be cool, too. It gets to be pretty intense around here while ramping up for 'big events' - my affectionate name for them! We all burn the midnight oil to accomodate training, admin stuff, so on and so forth, and for example yesterday I got to training before 9am and left the office at 1am (this morning!) - 16 hour day. 12 or 13 hour days are more common dur...

The train from Navoi gets into Tashkent at about 6:30 AM. I usually go to the office from there and take advantage of some quiet internet time. But I've developed a new habit. The Intercontinental Hotel in Tashkent is about a 20 minute taxi trip from the train station. You can go there for a breakfast buffet with omelettes, bacon, real coffee, fresh fruit, all sorts of danish - heaven. The wait staff in incredible - they all speak English and accomodate your every wish. It's really nice to si...

... to hope for the best.<br><br> Found a seat where I could tuck up my luggage close by my side and tried to go to sleep. I was doing well until a very nervous man sat next to me. As 4 seats are connected, every time he hoped up and down – which was frequent – the bench moved. So it was not a very comfortable 4 hours as I tried to get some sleep until he finally left.<br><br> After another ...

... put the van in front of his house. Bit bold I know, but most of you know me ;-) That evening we spend at his place where he lives together with his wife and mother-in-law. Not only can we park the car, but that evening we share a meal, can have a shower, may use the washing machine and sleep in the house! Basic things not so easy for us when traveling, so much appreciated! TJ and Lena show us their wedding video: Special because it is them and because we have seen a lot of ...

... de wasmachine met onze vieze was draait. Ik kijk toe hoe Angelique dit in korte tijd regelt en probeer de bescheiden Mira die dit echt te veel gevraagd vindt te negeren. <br><br>Gelukkig ben ik door ons nieuwe ritme enigszins gewend geraakt aan het vroege opstaan want ook hier begint de dag op tijd. Om kwart over 7 zit ik aan de wentelteefjes met thee. Hmmmm ik maak graag een uitzondering en het stevige ontbijt smaakt me prima voordat we de stad gaan ontdekken.<br><br>In de binnenstad ...

... most spectacular event is… what could it be, how do you think? The most spectacular event of this story is that you are going to see several most wonderful lakes of Western Tien-Shan divided by powerful Chatkal ridge. They have hidden in fairyland gorges, and every single lake is so beautiful itself that - if to be honest – you’re going to get quite an eyeful. You will see yourselves everything, and at the moment please believe us - worldly-wise ...

... I had spent in Iran I hadn't seen any women in advertising apart from those covered from head toe. There certainly wouldn't have been any advertising advocating perfume or alcohol in Iran. <br><br>Walking through customs the culture shock was only reinforced – again the women dressed very liberally, particularly the Russian looking women. As well as the clothing hair had never been so fascinating to me, after not seeing women's hair in Iran. As we drove in ...

... other than US dollars! As you received Uzbek sum currency for change – a currency that cannot be exchanged outside Uzbekistan – we went without. It didn’t help our fraying tempers when we boarded our stiflingly hot plane and found we were wedged three abreast in a jam packed plane. <br><br>Goodbye Uzbekistan! <br><br>Despite all the bureaucratic frustrations it was a wonderful destination and we would highly recommend our trip to other travellers.<br><br><br><br>
