Road to mongolia.


We finally arrived in Mongolia at 6am this morning. Not a bad trip as the slow train we were on had a few people from our hostel that we have made friends with. there also a group of english people obviously on a tour. I'm so glad that we didn't end up with them. They are like a bunch of pricks from Clapham. It's quite weird as you can tell that they have no clue because they have a guide who does everything for them. Its great - I was speaking mock russian just to confuse them. The hostel we are staying at is pretty good. They seem very organised ....just nice! Ania and I are tomorrow going on a 9 day day trip out into the Gobi with our Swiss friend and a nice english couple that we met this morning. Should be cool. Its only about US$175 each including our van and driver. Its gonna be one of those Russian 4x4 things that i love so much so we are really looking forward to the trip. Mongolia is great. You can tell the difference straight away compared to russia.

People smile and laugh for a start.

See you in 10 days!

remember to chew the sheep testicles in the stew before swallowing. Oh yeah, try some of that weird wrestling with little jackets with the long sleeves...... Summer has found London at last

Yeah Charlie, the only words in Russian that Jace knows is: Vodka, voda, provodnitza (carriage attendant), izveneetse (excuse me), da & niet. So you can imagine him repeating these words over and over, over and over.... I don't think he was taken seriously eheheh
