The Aral Sea, October, 2021 44°52’46.3″N 58°11’29.3″E
The Aral Sea used to be the 4th largest freshwater lake in the world. There is not a lot left and is, is so salty only a certain species of tiny shrimp actually live, allegedly (I did not see any). What’s left starkly beautiful, if tragic. In some ways it reminded me of the EtoshaContinue reading “The Aral Sea, October, 2021 44°52’46.3″N 58°11’29.3″E”

Samarkand (and around) Thanksgiving, 2020 39°39’17.6″N 66°58’32.3″E-ish
