It struck me today that I've been wearing a T-shirt that I really ought not to. At least in these parts. A Panzerkampfwagen MKVI (or Tiger Tank in plainer language) albeit in pink, in former Soviet territory is probably not the most diplomatic symbol to sport on ones chest. Given the contribution it made to the decimation of Soviet agriculture, industry, infrastructure and not least, populous, it is a bit provocative. Everyone has been too polite to punch me but I think a change of outerwear might be in order today. ....Just didn't think.
Apart from being sartorially insensitive, absolutely nothing else happened yesterday. It was a complete wipeout. I still found some time to smile, relax and chat to the hotel receptionist who was tremendously friendly and helpful. Found a bar to ruminate on my first world problems. Happy days really.
Just checked your plan map again and feel a swim could be in order as it doesn't look that far really. If not hopefully you'll find some form of craft to get going again. Still at least your ankle is getting some rest as you literally put your feet up with a pint. A fact about your next country - Turkmenistan has the fourth largest natural gas reserves in the world and are about to be visited by the man who contains the fifth (especially after a beer or two). Good luck to you and them.
