These children were absolutely fascinated by a group of foreigners sitting on the bank of the river.
The ground between the village of Kochkor and the Chuy River is riddled with tiny hillocks of grass. The area is slightly swampy, and sometimes, hopping from hillock to hillock is the only way to keep your feet dry.
My friends and I crossed the spring-fed streams north of Kochkor on our way to the Chuy river.
My friends and I encountered this pastoral scene a mere five minute walk north of the village of Kochkor.
The tiny village of Kara-Suu is located just outside of the slightly larger village of Kochkor. I took this shot as I was preparing to begin an afternoon of horse-trekking in the mountains behind the village.
