What do you do in Bishkek when the power goes out?
Take cool candle photos, of course!

The official map of Bishkek
only labels two religious facilities: the Orthodox Cathedral that I
photographed last week, and an Islamic Mosque. (Of course there are more than
two, but as I gather it, these are the main ones.) Yesterday I decided to check
out the mosque. I was hoping for something equal in splendor to the Orthodox
Cathedral, but I was rather disappointed: all concrete and tin. I only took one
photo, and it wasn't even all that great. I felt rather conspicuous, and wanted
to hurry things up so I wouldn't seem offensive.
For the dumping of trash there is a fine of 1000 soms.
Last night we went to Zeppelin, one of the few rock clubs in Bishkek.
Cadillac, the band whose members we know, was one of three groups who played.
