So after having crossed over into Mongolia we drove south to the large town of Darkhan and stayed at a hotel to shower and use the internet. That evening we went to a local Korean restaurant and ordered way too much and then had an utterly sleepless night due to a party in the next door room. It was the morning after that we found the back window of the car open and nothing but our very dirty laundry stolen!
We then drove south towards to Ulaanbaatar. Having stopped off for lunch at a beautiful spot by the road we also took the opportunity to dry out the awning and Sir Lawrence of Arabia (the tent) that had both received a soaking at Lake Baikal. The view was breathtaking so we ended up driving further away from the main road on an old track and found a peaceful and utterly hidden spot. We have yet to camp anywhere quite as beautiful and, to be honest, I’ll be surprised if we find anywhere quite as gorgeous again.
