Well, it isn't really new we have been here for over 5 weeks. However, things are getting really busy. I just thought I would post the weird and wonderful views from our flat. The one on the right is the Baiterek Tower as seen from the balcony of our flat. The tower rumoured to have designed by President Nazarbayev on the back of a knapkin, it is based on the golden egg of an eagle in Kazakh legend.
On the left is another view from the living room of our flat.....it isn't a clear night.. the weather has been getting steadily colder, and has already reached - 22c on some days.
The scene on the right is the scene from our bedroom window..... again it is not doing the scene any justice.... it looks like a scene from a science fiction film.
It cannot be denied, Astana is a very weird and wonderful city.
