The Karakum Desert

Tallest Minaret in Central asia and built in the 11th century

AT Konye Urgench - Islamic Mausoleum built in the 11th century, spared by Genghis Khan

Sunsets to die for

Hopscotch with the local kids

A truck too far

One of the Staintune Boys - nosy and loving it

Hey Bryan remember that game, pattercake, pattercake ...

Sunrise - get up you lazy buggers

A Nomad encapment

Dave working out his sleeping bag will Jo sorts her sleeping quarters

A fire to warm the cockles

Hey Phil do you want the top or bottom bunk?

Here we go - Fairydown City under construction, rain clouds gathering

Interspersed with sun-baked mud flats

Salt baked ridges not the great for the bikes

Saltpans where the rivers used to flow across here to the Caspian

Then the wind comes and we take a sandblasting

Aren't kids just the best?

A big event - visiting a desert encampment

The animal's quarters aren't much worse than those of their masters

More at home here than us

Dissued Urals litter the side of the road

Yurts are how the real Nomads do it
