Good morning. We're again by the river
this is Temirlik river
This river also has a canyon
there are plenty of canyons
everyone has their own canyon
I woke up tonight
and thought it's great to have Arvids and Tabita
they don't know each other
but what they have in common is
they both have lend us their hammock roofs
it was raining last night
I was so happy to have Arvids and Tabita and their roofs
without them
we would be soaking wet
having a nightmare
Kristaps is already running
he is trying to warm himself
can you see him running in the background?
In the last planning sessions Kristaps asked me
Which location is our main priority in this trip?
if all else fails...
we decided it's Lake Kaindy
that's where we're going today
Kazakh roads are straight for many miles
to prevent Dragraces here
roads are kept in poor condition and not too wide
animals are gazing on the roadsides
and everyone has to stop when they decide to cross.
Hallo?
This is my Kazakh voice mail
I have one message
but I have no idea how to hear it
finally we have phone coverage
I called my wife
that was a strange conversation
I told everything
for a 30sec she kept saying
yes - yes
even voice call gets delayed
we have 20Gb + another 20Gb data
how can we spend all that with such a poor network
Excuse me. Where is gas station?
we arrived in a village
and we need a petrol
there is the station
this is heaven
~0,40Eur/l
We have to pay. I need your wallet.
we nearly missed it
he was about to close the gas station
to lock the doors and leave
how could we get our petrol in this tiny village
probably locals would know
guy lives there and he has the keys
This is parking for lake Kaindy
It's nearly 2km to the lake from here
Car stays here. We have to hike, now
it's getting warm...
It's hard to hike on steep path
and you hope to reach the destination soon
moment ago Filips said -YES!
We have arrived, indeed!
oh, Goodness
woooow...
...awesome
When AirBaltic offered to take us to Kazakhstan
this View convinced me
this location blows my mind
That's a good place
we're looking for a place to hide our stuff
because we need to return back to car
and bring up the SUP board
Hello
In case you found this camera
and our bags
please don't take them
in case you already took them
here are my contacts:
kristaps.talbergs@gmail.com
and phone number
Thank you!
We've taken SUP board from car
we're bringing it up to the Lake
in the cover of darkness
let's hope no one will catch us
we're planing to get up early
before anyone sees us
and go SUP boarding
we're not sure if it's allowed
this is the only picture we've seen
it would make sense
not to allow boats in this lake
but we'll be gentle
we don't want to be caught doing something illegal
or maybe it's legal..
by the way this roadsign
serves as reflector for us
wooh, how bright
what are your options with bright torch and no soft-box?
It's no fun to set up camp in darkness
at least we've found our trees already
and we have nice string lights...
our hammocks are ready
and we can go to sleep
because plan is to get up at 5 am
and it's already 9:30
I'm not scared
I shiver because I'm cold
very, very cold
yesterday it was +10C by the car
Kristaps said - it must be colder by the lake
I trusted him, but had a doubt
turns out it's much colder here
high humidity makes everything wet
and frozen. Meaning it's below 0 degrees, right?
it's around zero or +1C
it was warm while I was sleeping
but I couldn't wait for the alarm to go off
Same for me. I was up since 4 am
we didn't fell
it's going to be great!
nearly done
SUP is ready
let's go in!
We're just back on shore
SUP boarding was the best idea for this lake
it's time for breakfast, but
thank you BuruSports for sponsoring this SUP board
We have a problem
we can't ignite the camping stove
Let's do MacGyver version
we have a lens, sun and a paper
maybe this will work
We're trying hard
when I remember
I have a torch with built-in
Electric Shock function
we will now try to
use it to ignite our stove
no way!
Nooo!
Why????
I hate to carry porridge in a pot
we didn't manage to ignite the stove
porridge is still uncooked
- electric shock didn't work
- lens effect didn't work
FAIL! We're not MacGyvers
Therefore always carry matches with you
next episode
Is having a flat tyre in desert on your bucket-list?
Not, but now I've done it!
