| We arrived in Ulaan Baatar this afternoon and we already miss the Mongolian steppe. We enjoyed the culture of a true horse-based society, no fences or land ownership, no trespassing worries, exhilarating freedom. |
 |
| Since the Mongolian roads were busy today due to the upcoming Naadam festival (a busy Mongolian road is a few vehicles per hour), these girls were out selling airag, the fermented mare's milk, for fifteen cents per bowl (150 Tugriks) |
 |
| "Excuse us, miss, but you're blocking the road you city
bumpkin!" |
 |
| Heavy traffic: people traveling into Ulaan Baatar for
tomorrow's Naadam Festival. |
