Today we visited the Karlag Dolinka museum, a depiction of the Soviet gulag. We spent some time walking around Karaganda before and after our trip to Dolinka. We walked in some of the same places we took our babies in 2004.
Dolinka is about an hour away from Karaganda, so we got a taxi to take us there. The driver, Seriek, toured the museum with us and drove us back to the city. He told us what we were seeing as we drove through the steppe. In the end, he took us to a shish-kebab restaurant that we never would have found by ourselves and helped us order. He’s going to take us to the airport on Thursday.
