Back in Ulan Baatar

August 23, 2012

We had 2 full days in UB to recover from the jeep trip and get ready for our next country. We put the laundry in, got the blog almost up to date, posted the Mongolia guidebook home and found a really nice cafe that did really good food. It seemed to be where the office … More Back in Ulan Baatar

16 day nomads – days 13 to 16: Central Mongolia

August 21, 2012

Day 13 Snow! It was a very cold night, Emma got Marie up at 2:30am to relight the stove. When we got back up at 6:30ish we were shocked to open the door and find wet’ish light snow falling, more surprisingly although the ground was wet it was sticking. We stepped out and looked across … More 16 day nomads – days 13 to 16: Central Mongolia

16 day nomads – days 9 to 12: Central Mongolia

August 17, 2012

Day 9 We used the internet and went to a couple of supermarkets before leaving Arvaikheer. Never knowing what kind of places we will be going to we stocked up while we had decent shops. We didn’t leave until midday and stopped an hour down the road for lunch. After that we stopped briefly in … More 16 day nomads – days 9 to 12: Central Mongolia

16 day nomads – days 4 to 8: Gobi Desert

August 13, 2012

Day 4 We packed up and refilled the water container from the well in the settlement that was ringed by a tyre with a bucket made from a recycled tyre on the end of a rope with a ladle made of wood. As luck would have it a local man went to the well at … More 16 day nomads – days 4 to 8: Gobi Desert

16 day nomads – days 1 to 3: Gobi Desert

August 9, 2012

Day 1 Fully loaded we were glad the weather was good and it wasn’t a far walk to the guesthouse where we were meeting our jeep and driver. We’d called in the day before and asked if we could extend the trip to 15 days as 14 would give us 4 days back in UB … More 16 day nomads – days 1 to 3: Gobi Desert

Mongolia – The halfway point: Ulaan Bataar

August 6, 2012

Flight 9: Yangon to Bangkok was a bit rough. We were slightly delayed as the plane was late arriving, then they got us all on, we were just waiting for cargo to be loaded and said sorry because they have been on the ground for 25 minutes they have to complete some immigration thing. All … More Mongolia – The halfway point: Ulaan Bataar
