Day 04 : 26th May, 2012 - Almaty, Kazakhstan

I got up leisurely and after taking shower had my breakfast of leftover homemade Puris, Tomato, cucumber and a banana with tea. I went to sleep after breakfast and was refreshed after an hour or so.. I asked the receptionist girls to go to Bishkek. She downloaded a map in Englsih and pointed out that “Sinara” is the place from where Buses will go and I should book the ticket. She did not know more than that. I took the map and came out and then saw crowded green Bazar and decided to explore it. This covered market was clean, shopkeepers have neatly spread out their merchandise mostly from china. I bought one Adidas Cap for 500 Tenge which is almost 1/3 rd price of Delhi. I dropped the idea of going to the Bus Stand and have decided to go tomorrow and then search for the ticket. Instead I went for internet café.  While going to the market, I was able to speak to many young people. They spoke one or two English words. Indian was a good word for them.
