The Second day.
After 230 kilometers we started the first off-road part of the way.

The old and already abandoned road, there was no asphalt, and nobody use it for many years, because new road has been already built that goes near the cities. But this road is shorter to our destination point. The road goes throw the steppe so it was boring, bumpy and long – 300 kilometers.

There my first failure occurred -knocked out of the rear brake pad, extruded brake piston and emptied brake fluid tank. We totally removed the caliper and blocked the hose and continued our way.
Later, during our ride the Prado’s caravan is unplugging from towing ball and tries to rollover. The experiences of the driver save it. Late evening we arrived to the lake Zaisan for a camp.
There we had one more surprise – the migration season of the moth. There were a millions of them. Slightly rise up the cover of cap with noodles, 5 of them are already there. Move the fork from cap to the mouth, took a few more of them, so, we ate quickly and went to sleep as fast as we could.
Before sleeping we took a few shots of cocktail made by our cook to relieve the stress and sleep well. The recipe: pure alcohol + pure water in proportional 50/50 + one sugar cube. Shake it well and the cocktail - “Red square” is ready. Why the “Red square”? Because if you try to drink it too much, at morning you will have the red eye and the square head.
