Possible lock down in Uzbekistan

We have now made it to Tashkent the capital of Uzbekistan only to be told that the Uzbek government have closed the Kyrgistan and Kazakhstan borders. The Kazakhstan border must be open for us to continue. We will get a Kazakhstan visa tomorrow and hope for the best. Possibly, once we find some definitive info then we will be able to decide what we do. It all adds a bit of excitement to an oterwise uninteresting and boring journey. NOT.
