Going local with our clothing - the best way to stay warm is a Mongolian del!
To all those loyal readers out there, I would like to apologize for the dearth of posts over the past two weeks. We have just returned to Ulaan Baatar after an amazing 13-day and 2,560km tour of the Gobi Desert and Monoglian Steppe. What an adventure it has been! Some of the highlights included: sand dunes, camels, fermented milk of the latter, yaks, snow storms, desolate landscapes, and hot springs.
Russian minivans are the vehicles of choice in Mongolia.
I am going to keep the posts chronological so the Monogolia posts won’t be for a couple of weeks (following the rest of Sri Lanka and Cambodia) but I thought I would drop a few pictures down as teasers. Amy and I have both done our share of “roughing it” during our travels but I think this most recent tour pushed the limits for the both of us. We are definitely enjoying the relative luxury of our rundown Soviet-era accomodations here in Ulaan Baatar this evening!
