Try Not to Die!!! [Tuesday, June 11, 2013]

Ben and Anakin were waiting in their usual spot for their students to arrive. "Welcome to Kaz-" Ben frowned, then tried again. "Kazik--"

"Kazakhstan," Anakin finished for him. "It's a country in central Asia."

Rory had told him. Shhh.

"It's cooler there than our last destination, so you will not be getting wet," he continued. "I'm not guaranteeing anything about not getting messy, though."

Isn't he reassuring, class?

Ben shook his head. "Race hard, be safe, don't tick anyone off, and we'll see you at the end of the class."

WTF Kazakhstan.

Roadblock: Yeah, You Look Stupid

Wait for the the next student to arrive, then pair up and put on a two-person cow costume from the Almaty Puppet Theater. Walk across town to the marketplace, where you will have to drink an entire glass of fresh milk. Your next location is printed (in Russian script) at the bottom of your glass.

Ask a local to translate if you aren't fluent in Russian.

Detour: Work or Play!

Search among 30,000 chickens (seriously, 30,000) for one of 13 golden eggs that you then give to the farmer watching you. He will hand you a clue that tells you where Anakin and Ben are waiting.

Or travel to the State Museum of National Musical Instruments and learn to play a traditional folk tune on the dombra or the shang-kobuz which you then play for locals to earn tips totaling 200₸ (approximately equivalent to US$1.50) in a park to receive your next clue.

So...tedium or potential tone-deafness. Choose wisely!
