3 on a train
8th Aug 2012
Back at Ulaanbaatar (UB)

Mary-Anne - will keep this very short as heading away in an hour. Had a wonderful 2 days at a Ger camp in the Terelj National Park. Parks are run differently here in that you can lease land within the Park hence the tourist ger camps alongside the nomadic gers. Our camp was located on a hillside overlooking a beautiful valley. Very green and lush with wildflowers everywhere. Sheep, goats, cattle, horses all grazing in small groups also a few yaks. Went for a horse ride, small horses slow on the outward journey but happy to trot home again. Visited a nomadic family and tried out the various dishes of dairy products including yoghurt, cheeses that the wife had made. Most of us had wobbly tummies afterwards!
