Travelling back home.

So this summer I'm back in Kazakhstan visiting my family. I just arrived here on June 12, and it has been so much fun so far! I took some pictures on the way here, some from the plane, some at the airports... I started at LAX, went to Moscow and then to Astana Airport. Total number of hours in the air was 16... plus 3 more in the car to get home. Fun trip! Anyway, here are some photos! (The first one is the frost on my airplane window)

Took these next few photos at the airport in Moscow. It was nice and quiet and all of a sudden a pretty bad rainstorm started, it was really pouring and I was so afraid of flying... Our flight was an hour late because of weather, but we got home all safe!

And while I was waiting to get on the plane, I was so thirsty and hungry I had to get some dinner! Then I finally got on that plane, saw one of the most amazing sunrises I have ever seen, and finally met with my family! Took some shots on the drive home, too...

I want to tell a little about these last two photos. The first one is an old abandoned gas station and the last one is a big factory that looks like this or even worse pretty much all the time. It is located very close to a small city, so people have to breathe this air every day... it's pretty sad.

Well, I hope you enjoyed the photos!
