Day 35

We had no mobile signal at our campsite overnight to be able to let the children know where we were so we drove around the area to try and find one this morning, but with no success.

A lazy morning followed with time for a few vehicle checks and a clean out of dust from cupboards and engine.

We then headed off with a stop to fill our water tanks and buy drinking water in a town about 40km from the border.

While waiting for Beth and Pat to buy the drinking water, a silver Audi pulled up with Rachael and Tom in it, so after 8 days, the group was re-united.

Camping tonight proved a little more interesting than usual as I managed to get stuck in a patch of very soft sand concealed beneath a thin crust. After a pull backwards by Tiny, I was able to drive through OK.  I felt less foolish when Tiny also got stuck in the same patch and the winch was deployed for the first time.

Barcelona or Kazachstan? Difficult, but I think China tomorrow just tips the balance.  Hope you all have a great time.
