Day 41

We decide to leave Nukus and go to Khiva, so we can meet again Pixie and Robin. We leave the hotel a bit late, and we still have to get a SIM card for our phones. As it seems we are going to spend a lot of time here in Uzbekistan it’s a good thing having one.

We have problems finding an open phone store, finally we enter to one. It seems they cannot do it, so Tià goes on food to another one while I wait for him with my new two friends. They are really curious about Spain and our journey. We spend more than an hour talking a bit about everything, but what crushes me is when we talk about money… they are working 12 hours every day 6 days/week and they get paid around 50€!!! Finally Tià comes back with our two new SIM cards. We are ready to go!

Taking selfies while waiting

When we are all full dressed, Tià realizes that he left the keys on the motorbike… and the lights were on!!!! So now we don’t have battery and we can’t go. After calling a taxi, going to buy the cables, and stoping a car to charge the battery, we go back to the hotel. It’s too late and hot to ride to Khiva now!

Trying to start the Bonnie:

At least the hotel was really nice, so it doesn’t bother us to stay here more time!
