What a shiiiiitfight
We got the "rise 'n' shine" yell pretty early this morning. I rose, but definitely wasn't shining. We were in Aktau so it was time to jump on the ol' Kazakh courtesy bus and head to immigration. As with most of these things, nothing happens quickly, so it was morning nap time.
The process which then followed was one of the most ludicrous and frustrating of my life. Customs, ...
Aktau and Atyrau on the Caspian Sea
We arrived in Aktau after a 3 hour red-eye flight on Sunday morning. Aktau....oh my. To put it mildly, this place was quite lacking in charm. Or, I could also call it a lifeless pile of cinder blocks on the edge of the Caspian sea.

Erilainen rantalomakohde
... joskin menneen ajan glooria on enaa muisto vain. Pollyavassa hiekassa
rapistuvat Breznevilaisen arkkitehtuurin helmet ovat mielenkiintoisessa

After scoping out the local hotels and discovering the cheapest room was 80pounds we made the fastest decision yet, to get the train out of there. Twenty four hours more on the train, another day with out a shower (to add to the 4 days it had already ...
The hole part II
... Irish pubs and decrepid monuments to the soviet era only one word really comes to describe this place a 'hole'. Aktau is essentially a cross between Elephant and castle and a bad seaside resort on the edge of the desert. In truth I love the ridiculousness of the place. Were it not for oil this place would have been left derelict and empty after the fall of communism, in the smae way many other towns have been in the former soviet union. However bizarre it is, Aktau buzzes ...
