The visa issue resolved itself a little faster than expected - Kazakhstan's rules are a little Byzantine, but whatever contact Charles has was able to fast-track them for us. So I've gone ahead and booked our flights for tonight. We've got a plane leaving for Frankfurt at 9pm, then a few hours layover there tomorrow morning before the connecting flight to Almaty.
We're going to stay with the nomads, by the way - I hope no one's got any objections to that, but we've got to do a fair bit of talking to them, specifically the families making the complaints about how their children are being treated. Our hosts are in their winter camp between Almaty and Khorogos; the school's in the vicinity of Lake Balkhash, so it works out well. We'll have to take some equipment with us for the purposes of recording and reproducing - I'll take care of that.

PS: The winter in Kazakhstan is apparently very, very cold this year.
