I'm almost done with Part 3! I'll have it up tomorrow morning - I am just too damn jetlagged, still, to stay up any longer.

Thanks so much for your patience folks. I promise it'll be up early tomorrow morning!

Perhaps, just a bit . (They say they can always spot the rookie international first class flyers).

Part 3 is up, folks! So sorry for the delay! It's a long segment, complete with the fun of someone being removed from the TK flight, and the customs process in Uzbekistan! Find the link above.

Enjoy, and please let me know of any suggestions or criticisms.
