Day 69 Oskemen 0/17.070 km

Blijf op de hoogte en volg Rudy

28 Juni 2014 | Kazachstan, Ust’-Kamenogorsk

After breakfast we decided to stay another night in Oskemen. After the gruelling drive yesterday we deserved a no-car day. Instead we started walking. First to the park around the corner from the hotel. It a beautifully laid out park with lots of flower beds and sitting area. Classical music was playing softly from loudspeaker. In the park we visited the open-air museum of Kazakh/Altay houses. We were guided by a couple of grandma who showed us the houses (if they could find the right key).
Since it was a hot day we didn’t walk that much. Instead we decided to make use of the free Wifi in the park by reading our latest email and newspaper. And Rudy of course make use of the free time by taking a nap on the bench. In the evening after diner we watch

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
