three days in Osh: R&R

"You're the first to believe me that I can't make phone calls on this tablet" Patrick says to the girl at "Beeline" for a Kyrgyzstan sim card. She puts the sim card into her phone to activate. In Africa and India when buying a sim card, the process was so difficult. Here, it was very efficient.

There is not all that much to say about our three days in Osh. We rested up in the TES guesthouse, meet and talk with other cyclists and have several good meals a day, either alone or in the company of our cycling friends. On sunday we wander through the bazaar and take a taxi to visit the livestock market. There are several "supermarkets" and we stock-up on goodies for the next stage.

Entertainment park along the Osh greenbelt. Somehow they got an old Tupolev aircraft in there.
