My Crib

My Room...empty suitcases and full cabinet :)


Directly opposite the cabinet is my bed :)

The front door -- this is what you see from my bedroom door.


Doorway to the kitchen.


The kitchen!




The other side of the kitchen!


The living room.


More living room -- excuse the clutter we had guests staying with us!!



Self explanatory.


The shower complete with Tajik/Russian toilettries.





The water hearter. My favourite appliance in the bathroom.

Independence Day Long Wknd @ Iskander Kul (Alexander Lake)

**Pics are not in any particular order. Check out the video of the waterfall :)**

Sitting on a rock above the waterfall


This is a tree before the waterfall where past visitors have tied pieces of cloth to signify their intent to return.


The beautiful view from our camp site.




More view :)




The crew - just chillin' (Right to left: Heidi, Farid, Roma, Holly)




Riverside walk to the waterfall.




There is a very intense waterfall below us. The view was amazing. We were only a few feet away from the action.




On the way to Iskander Kul, driving through the mountains.





The cooks for the weekend. I believe the main course is a delish veggie soup.




There we go.





Holly diligently tending after the firewood.




Farid aka Head Chef.
