Yes, I am now in Mongolia! Just a quick post as an update today.
I left Beijing yesterday morning at 1122 on the overnight train to Ulan Bataar. Many take the train in one hit to Moscow but one night was enough for me this time. A great feeling between all on the train. Border crossing in the middle of the night not well timed but we git to stay on the train as they lifted the carriages with hydraulic lifts and changed the bogeys as we watched. Mongolia is a different guage to China.
Mongolia is lacking in trees but there’s something good about its capital. Just need to figure out what ¡
Tomorrow off to stay in a ger or yurt for a night so no net or indeed power for me until Saturday. Thanks for reading and May the Journey Never End!
Happy trails!
That’s awesome – staying on the train while they refitted the bogeys? I didn’t know that was possible!
