Day 57 - 1 November - Tbilisi Airport > Tashkent

We woke up had breakfast in the Ibis which was surprisingly expensive (basically our most expensive meal in ages) and was fine but not worth the price. After that we went to airport and checked in. Tbilisi is not an amazing airport but is much more glamorous than our other travelling high has been mainly bus or night train. We looked at wines to try and see if any of our ur wines were there (they weren’t) and got very expensive cereal bars in Costa which is apparently everywhere!

We got on the plane, it was only a 2.5 hour flight and it was interesting to see the Caspian Sea from above and to fly over Turkmenistan and see the strange geological and some man made formations below. They gave us loads of food! Which was nice of them but seemed a bit excessive for such a short flight. We arrived and I got a local SIM card with 50gigof internet for like a 5er which is much cheaper than the esims we have been using.

We had no money and then got hassled by a taxi driver who said he was on Yandex, but that would have been much cheaper but we were slightly disoriented and I think ready to be mugged off a bit. Uzbek seems to have 3 ways of spelling everything and the driver had to keep calling our host to locate our apartment. We also had to get cash, and the first atm didn’t have enough money for us to take out. We arrived and had to pay our host, but dispite having 1,200,000som, we didn’t have enough and had to go to the atm again with our host who seemed a bit bemused by how chaotic we were (we had laid out the money in 100,000 bunches to count it!

Once we were settled, we walked down to the main squares and went to this very random but slightly ritzy restaurant hat we think Zazz had recommended, and did not have Uzbek food really. We then walked home as we were quite tired. I didn’t sleep amazingly because I got bitten by this mosquito and was hot. Also had caffeine quite late in the restaurant.

Day 58 - 2 November - Tashkent

We woke up and moved quite slowly to go out. Went walked to the mosque complex which had a mixture of old and new mosques. The one we went into was really nice but there are some in Tashkent that look quite new and post soviet. Tashkent was destroyed by an earthquake in the 60s and was rebuilt as a soviet planned city which gives it quite a suburban vibe, lots of the new buildings are in what is called a neo-timurid style which is a modern take on the buildings that Timur (Tamerlane) and his descendants built in places like Samarkand but these buildings are a bit weird.

We then went to chorsu bazar, near the. Mosque complex which was huge and had loads of things from clothes to food to sell. Near a food bit I got vox popped by some girls on TikTok and asked about the food I liked from Uzbekistan but at that point I hadn’t had any Uzbek food so was quite a bad interviewee we went to the main bazar building that is a huge food market with meat cheese and pickles being sold. We got pickles and then went to a plov center nearby which was our first outing of plov the national dish. We got some veg for dinner and a bread to try. We then took the Tashkent Metro to the most famous (and most decorated) station in Tashkent named after the poet Alisher Navoi. We then went to the supermarket and bought the rest of the things for dinner. Nina cooked and we chilled for the evening. Didn’t sleep very well again as the mosquitoes were back and they really bite here!

Day 59 - 3 November - Tashkent

We moved very slowly we both read for a while in the flat. I finished my book on Central Asia and then started the Party by Tessa Hadley. We then went to the State Museum of Timurids which was a bit unhinged in a neo Timurid building. Most of its exhibits were pictures of things and then sign that said things like ‘original in the Met New York’ or ‘Original in State Museum of Moscow’ and then it had a whole wall on the top floor devoted to people that had signed the guestbook which was weird.

We then went to the most famous plov center the real one which is out by the TV tower and this was huge and full of people. We had a good Plov again. It was right by a sports center that I think was hosting the world MMA championships and had people in tracksuits of the different teams.

We went to the TV tower that was really annoying, the queue system was non-sensical and took ages. When we did get up the view was good but not amazing and we left quite annoyed but enjoying complaining ow bad it was. We took the metro to Hotel Uzbekistan which is a famous brutalist hotel in the center of Tashkent and went to the bad at the top which was very retro. The Russian MMA Team were staying there and we took the lift with one of them feeling slightly unnerved!

After that we went opera house for a concert of the opera troup’s favourite arias which was actually really nice nd a nice way to spend the evening. We walked back to the flat and bought a sweetcorn for the walk and went to bed. I slept fine as I had bug spray , no one bites Fred Mann 3 nights in a row!

Day 60 - 4 November - Tashkent > Khiva

We woke up and packed up slowly and read, during the packing I killed a mosquito that was very big that had no doubt been terrorising me the nights before. The revenge was sweet. We checked out and walked to the restaurant we were having lunch which was a really nice modern Uzbek restraint called Afona. We went to cafe beside it after and then got a Yandex to the station. Our guy was great and he weaved his way through traffic very effectively.I love when a taxi driver goes out to bat for you!

We then got to the station and bought some food for the journey. The train arrived but they needed to connect the other cars very protracted activity and meant we didn’t get on the train til about 6.15. We got into our compartment - it was very hot on the top bunks. We had 2 guys in sports gear (MMA guys?) in our compartment, they went Jizzakh. At Samarkand another guy got in o I think thought I was a bit of a fool. At one point a cockroach walked up the wall beside me on the wall Nin and I tried to kill it but the guy below had to do it with his water bottle. I slept a bit but wasn’t the most restful sleep ever, although I must have slept a bit as I didn’t notice the next guy get in to the other bottom bunk (I assume at Bukhara). We woke up near Urgench the stop before Khiva.
