As planned, we left the urban life to discover the countryside of Kyrgyzstan. We took a mashrutka (minibus) from Bishkek to Karakol in the Issyk-Kul region. Issyk-Kul, at a height of 1800m, is the world's second-largest alpine lake (after Lake Titicaca) and moderates the climate around the lake in winter and summer.

I am amused :-)
Thanks for your comments... I am very amused Patrik... i don't know what you see! May be I should shave one day? What do you think? Evelyne: We have no clue what you have written in Russian... our Russian is very poor and doesn't improve because we are now learning uzbek! Someone has an idea about the nature of this white animal??? silvan

Hello from teaneck
Dear Annamaria and Sylvan. I enjoy your journals. Assuming that you will visit Taskent, I wonder whether there are any Greeks still there? The Russians moved them there after the communists were forced to leave Greece in about 1947? Regarding us we are doing good. Little Anna ( 7 months old) visited us last weekend. She very sweet and very alert. Love Spyros

Greeks in Tashkent
Spyros: we didn't meet any Greeks in Tashkent. There must still be some of them living there, but we've been told that a lot of foreigners left the city in the last years because it's more and more difficult to find jobs here. Filia to the whole family!

animal blanc
Pour sûe c'est un mustelidé, peut-être la fameuse zibeline dont on fait des manteaux! Mais je ne suis pas sure qu'elle vire au blanc en hiver. Sinon c'est une belette (ou une hermine si le bout de sa queue est noir). Mais on dirait une peluche!!! Elle est trop cute!
