On Tuesday our convoy of two 4WD vehicles left Khorog at 5 am and we arrived home in Dushanbe at 9.30 pm. As it was the Eid Al Adha holiday, restaurants along the way were closed. Fortunately we'd stocked up with a haversack of fruit and some snacks before setting out and we did find a small place where we stopped briefly for tea and freshly baked Tajik bread. Arriving home we were delighted to find that we all utilities were working - electricity, water and even a low-pressure gas supply. Our accumulated laundry went in the washing machine to be put out first thing the next morning. More snow fell overnight. Right now it's foggy and the snow is gradually melting.
