Horse meat is a biggy here....

Horse meat is a biggy here. Did not see any restaurants, but Vodka is really cheap, about 15 cents a liter! This picture is a bus stop. But never did see any busses up in this part of the country???? It is in the shape of the national hat. The hats are made in Osh and are way cool, be sure to pick one up, they are about $1. You can take a helicopter into the mountains and even stay with the nomads. These are outdated Soviet era machines, FLY AT YOUR OWN RISK! Please read up on Yurt etiquette before going! All the guards hit you up for bribe money throughout the country, worst at the airport in Bishkek. It is all very annoying, just get the name of the person, pay them, and you can turn them in to the authorities! These people have little but share what they have.
