Nice summary! Had me wishing I could go.

Good to see the flat tailed house gecko again! One of the best shots of the tour, and one of the best nature shots I have seen in a long time.

It's completely random, Bill. I needed an article of celebratory clothing in 2019 and a fellow traveler made me aware of a shop in Dushambe that was selling red ties. I forget their main line of business but it wasn't red ties!
