Mongolia wasn't in my (immediate) plan. But as it turned out, me and my 3 other friends found ourselves here in late May, and happy we made the trip.

Hi Dave
Thanks for dropping by. Obviously, we enjoyed donning those costumes and role-playing. It took awhile before we were able to leave. Many of the other tourists wanted to have their pictures taken with us. For a while there, I wanted to charge them $5 per photo. [:)]

This is in my list of places to go before I die and after Ive paid off my credit cards. Probably wont be able to visit a ger though coz I dont want to offend the owners when I tell them I'm vegetarian.

Advance notice
For vegetarians, you can tell your guide so they'd prepare more bread and cole slaw! But frankly, so much meat in Mongolia!
