June 30th, 2023 Ashgabat, Turkmenistan

5AM I woke. We had breakfast at 7:10AM. and did not leave until 8AM. We stop by the mud crater and the water equator on the way back.

8:30AM We started our return to Ashgabat. We had lunch at the food court in the mall, which included some shared 2 dumplings and 1 skewer chicken for 26 TMT.

3PM We went to the Ferris Wheel, the Constitution Monument, and glimpsed at the Path of Health as we were told we couldn't stop there for a photo. We chose to not go into the National Museum because it was already 4:30 PM and they close in 30 minutes at 5PM.

6PM We arrived at Taoufiq's hotel. Franz didn't like it and went to check out another hotel by taxi. I slept on the couch for 30 minutes. They found that the nicer hotel was 180 USD. They didn't take it and returned.

7PM We went to check out the festival across the street. I had an ice cream there. We had food nearby and I had a lamb soup.

8:30PM We went to the Constitution Monument and then stopped by for ice cream before returning to the hotel at 10:40PM. I wasn't happy about them not picking us up early morning since that was agreed on.


11PM Franz tried to look for the bar nearby and wasn't happy that he couldn't find it. We all returned to the hotel. Franz went out to the clubs on his own. I took a shower in Taoufiq's room and left around 11:30PM. Loic was waiting outside already trying to find a taxi so we shared one for 10 TMT each. We arrived at the airport just before midnight.
