Kazakhstan 2010 - Slightly different postcards

1. City buses from Oskemen (east Kazakhstan) to... Brandbergen (Sweden!).
Of course it's impossible - they just buy used buses in Sweden but don't change the description on the board :)

2. Breaks for dinner. The shop is opened but there's a break for a meal. So in fact it's closed :)

3. The meals. Mutton, mutton and one more time mutton. For breakfast (rice with mutton), for lunch (soup with mutton and mutton with potatoes) and for dinner (something with mutton). Even as a dessert you get a doughnut but with mutton inside. Not sweetened of course.
On the picture traditional Kazakh dish - Mutton with onion and a kind of pasta.

...and this is how you look after a week of eating only mutton...

...and this is where you can't get. Or quite contrary.
Ladies' toilet in the biggest high school in the region. There are no 'normal' toilets in the whole Katon-Karagay, I swear. No showers as well... Just a bowl with cold water or sauna.

Sometimes you even see it from the outside...

4. Play of words untranslatable for English-speakers :) Sorry!

Hand-washer in front of the bar.

...and the bar itself.

Warning for pirates on the roads. Means: "slow down or you will end like this". Brutal but works.

Butterfly on my shoe. They were not frightened at all!

And this is what you do when you eat too much mutton and drink to much alkohol to digest it somehow...
