Day 45 Kizil-Oy-Bishkek 251/11.911 km

Blijf op de hoogte en volg Rudy

04 Juni 2014 | Kyrgizië, Bisjkek

The second day on this road was nicer and easier. The conditions of the road were better. The first stretch was through the gorge till it open up into the large 2000m high valley at Suusamyr. The vast flowing stream we had followed was ideal for rafting and the mountains around the valley for skiing. Who takes the initiative? The road met the main Osh to Bishkek “highway” which started off with a climb up to 3100m. On the other side we snaked down the mountain into the large plains of Kirgizstan/Kazakhstan. We drove through the outskirts of Bishkek up to the Ala-Archa canyon national park. There on a parking place at 2000m along a fast flowing river we stopped for the night. Later on Angelina, who had her car repaired in Kazakhstan, joined us. In the afternoon there was time for a nice walk through the wooded mountain side following the river. We have not seen a forest for some time.

    He, goed om weer wat van jullie te horen!!!! Uit jullie reisverslagen valt op te maken dat er elke dag wel weer een klein of groot onverwachte gebeurtenis op popt, waar je maar weer mee te dealen hebt....... Gelukkig slaan jullie je overal tot nu toe nog goed doorheen! De foto's zijn tot nu toe mooi, maar ik ben benieuwd naar de totale collectie, in normaal vergroot formaat.

Rudy

We are a family of 4. Rudy Welling was a Principal Production Technologist with Shell/NAM's offshore team. He first went on sabbatical from April 2014 to April 2016. In that period he made a return trip to Vladivostok with his wife, Jamaliah, in camper Passepartout. This was followed by trips to New Zealand and Spain. In April 2016 Rudy re-joined NAM/Shell again in Assen for a year and then retired in May 2017 after 37 years with Shell. He and his family have spent some 21 years in various Shell locations around the world (NL, UK, Brunei, NL, USA, Nigeria, Oman, NL). Jamaliah Jaja is the Manager of the house and comes from Brunei. Anton (1993) studies Business IT in Groningen Bernard (1994) studies Mechatronics also in Groningen Both boys still live at home, but will have to run the household on their own when we start our trip. Our previous trip by car (Volkswagen Passat Station) was from Oman to Holland in 2007. Rudi's great plan is to travel with his wife in a camper around the world. The trips will be in steps. The first is from Amsterdam to Vladivostok. De second from Tierra Del Fuego in Argentina over the PANAM highway to Prudo Bay in Alaska. Australia and New Zealand will be separate side trips and Africa will either be done out and back from Amsterdam or just from the Cap to Amsterdam. Now as K/O of Rudi's retirement we are making this second step on a journey around the world. We hope you will enjoy our story Rudy & Jamaliah
