Khiva to Bukhara - lunch and toilet stop.

The practicalities of travel are also interesting.  There was no (ie none, zip, zilch, zero) place for us to buy our own lunch, so the hotel provided a packed lunch and we stopped at a place with shelter, tables and chairs.  They were selling some kebabs and there was a tiny shop, but they would not have been able to cater for the 23 of us.  Such is tourist infrastructure.

So we sat down to our mystery packets

The eating area.  It was cool and pleasant.

There were toilets nearby.  Note the jug.

Don't forget your paper.

There were no basins.  The water for hand-washing was in the jug.

No doubt it had come from this - a stand-pipe.
