The most interesting city in the world?

According to “Lord Curzon” it is, and maybe one of the best places in it is Labi Hauz, an city-like oasis surrouned by great buildings and eateries.

I følge “Lord Curzon” er Bukhara den mest interessante byen i hele verden, og det beste stedet i byen er muligens Labi Hauz, en byoase omringet av flotte bygg og ete/-drikke steder.

It's raining money!!

In UZB; Dollar is King! If you go there, make sure you bring a lot of it, as you can get very good exchange rates at the black market, and once you do, you will end up with plenty of small bills to play around with..

I UZB, så er det dollar som gjelder! Hvis du drar dit så ta med plenty av cash, for du kan få veldig gode vekslingsrater på svartemarkedet, og når du først veksler, så ender du opp med plenty av små sedeler som det er morro å leke med..

Storks long gone

Most of the canals and pools were drained by the Russians once they stormed the town in 1920. as planned the bugs disappeared, but with them the many storks also did, but the many nests can still be seen around.

Flesteparten av kanalene og bassengene ble tørrlagte av Russerne som stormed byen in 1920 (Labiz Hauz er ett unntak). Som planlagt ble de kvitt insektsplagen, men storkene forsvant også, nå er bare redene tilbake.

What money can buy

Jewelry market, and Tor A takes pictures of jewelry or it’s customers?

Det er uklart om det er smykkene eller kundene bror er mest interessert i..

The Ark

Before the emir Said Ah Kahn fled to exile in Afghanistan, The Ark was the fortified residence of the emir.

Før emir Said Ah Kahn flyktet i eksil til Afghanistan, var fortet Arken boligen til emiren.

Caught off guard

Being an emir was probably not an easy task in the sizzling heat, but beauties were probably abound.

Å være en emir var trolig ikke bare bare i den stekende heten, men skjønnheter i ens nærvær var det trolig overflod av.

Skinnydip

Some of the locals decided to swim naked, I kept my boxer shorts on, and
kept my mouth over water cause the water was rather murky.

Noen av de lokale svømte nakne, men jeg beholdt boxer shortsen på, og hold
hodet over vannet for vannkvaliteten var vel heller tvilsom.

My only souvernir

On my whole journey I only bought one souvenir (1 rmb!, and I still wear it), a wristband which I was bemused to have a cute girl attach to my leg (and the 3 others was “copy-cats”). In the end we had a masseuse think this was a new trend for we visited a massage center twice in Xinjiang with a few days in between, and the girl the gave Morten a massage, by chance later also gave my brother a massge.

På hele min lange ferd, kjøpte jeg kun en suvernir (for 1kr!, og jeg går med den fortsatt), ett armbånd som jeg synes det var litt underholdene at den unge selger dama skull knyte rundt leggen min (og de tre andre kjøpte også som “copy-cats”). En massøse som senere masserte Morten og tilfeldigvis også Tor A med noen dagers mellomrom lurte på hva dette var for noen ny trend?
