The next day was finally the moment to resolve all the cliffhangers: watching the World Cup qualifying match between Kyrgyzstan and Australia at the Bishkek stadium was an absolutely amazing experience. When Kyrgyzstan scored their first goal in the last minutes (1-2), the crowd went wild (even though there was no roof on the stadium). The team did a victory lap, and they were applauded off the field as winners.

Traveled route: Bishkek, Ala Archa National Park, Kockkor, Song-Kul lake, Beltam Yurt Camp, Fairytale Canyon Skazka, Karakol, Altyn-Arashan, Cholpon-Ata, Jalal-Abad, Kazarman
