A fun part of the Fiestavus / Fiesta Movement is the opportunity to dig back into the Mongol Rally. As part of this, I am going to try to run a photo every Thursday with a little deeper explanation. So here is the first installment.

I took this photo in Kazakhstan 180 km south of Karragandy. Earlier in the day we had ditched the Fiat in the desert following a failed replacement of a blown head gasket. For the first time, probably since Poland, we were actually making good time and as a result all were in fairly good spirits.
