More bad news. Typhoon kicking up on the other side of the caspian our boat is now anchored off coast of azer. Could be here a few days til the storm clears. The boat is so shabby and smells really bad. Not goin to be nice. Just want to get back on the road. No shower for 5 days whilst on car park and none on boat. Really not good we need one so bad especially in this heat!

Scott sounds like you are experiencing some low points at the moment. Hopefully they will soon pass and it will get a little easier. Some times it's really hard but remember there's always light at the end of the tunnel. Trust me i know.

Good luck
