Gobi desert: day4

22.10.11

Getting used to the taste of vodka in mouth in the morning. 🙂 Time to go back to Ulaanbaatar. But forst, the cliffs. Nothing that special, kind of a mini grand canyon.

Our geologist Greg told me that the red colour comes from iron, which when I think of it, I already knew.

On our way back, we stopped at an abandoned tourist camp, which was pretty nifty to me. Notice the place where showers used to be, along with tiles and plumbing. The hut was used to warm the water.

Before we knew it, we were in rainforest.

(what?)

A restaurant in Dalanzadgad we had our last meal in before taking the bus-from-hell back to Ulaanbaatar. Greg was smart (and wealthy) enough to take the plane back. We would meet him back at Ulaanbaatar Curry House, our designated rendezvous point.

This guy actually brought a tree from the desert!

We arrived to our destination early the next morning.
