Did I make a mistake with this group?
Sorry, I made a post here a few days ago asking if anybody knows
anything about traveling in Uzbekistan in october (the climate, mostly) but nobody answered. Maybe I did a mistake and should have posted somewhere else? Anybody can give advice? Would be very, very grateful. Ciao |

Probably nobody knows anything about your destination. While I haven't either, I suggest you go to some official site for Uzbekistan and see if that sort of climate info is there (usually is), and if not, email them and ask. Might get a tourist kit or something (wouldn't plan on that, though). John W. |

Ciao Maybe you'd want to try www.lonelyplanet.com Both their destination guide and thorn tree might be helpful to you. Anette |

Many thanks to all of you. I'd rather die than travelling again with a Lonely Planet Guide. Did it twice in Iran. Do not know what saved me. God, possibly. And, yes, I have visited uzbek official www sites, but what I was looking for was personal experience. But evidently few people go to Uzbekistan. In any case, really, many thanks for your kindness. Ciao from Italy |

No, you did not make a mistake, but some of us prefer not to post publically because that results in more spam. Since your e-mail address seems to be invalid, I did not reply. I was in Uzbekistan for about two months last year and will be happy to help, if I can.

The whole point of Usenet is that everyone benefits from the answers posted here. Otherwise it's just a private question-and-answer service which is far less useful and far less interesting for everyone. miguel -- Hit The Road!

You can get historical weather data at www.worldclimate.com. I've always found this the most useful way to plan for climate. Maybe I did a mistake and should have posted somewhere else? Anybody can give advice? Would be very, very grateful. For current advice from faraway places Lonely Planet's Thorn Tree web site can be useful. It is populated with a number of intrepid travelers hammering away on keyboards in remote dusty internet cafes. http://thorntree.lonelyplanet.com/ca...s.cfm?catid=13 miguel -- Hit The Road!

Larry has not posted answers to my queries on several occasions,-on other NGs and probably here as well. However he has posted- more than once- to inform me that he has an answer but as he can't email me, he won't post the answer. Larry, if you are reading this thread... why won't you share your answers with the group? Why be so secretive? Jan --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
