| Courtney, aka the yoga hobo, and Martyn at Russian border; we'd met them at Irkutsk hostel, then on train and again at UB hostel. |
 |
| At the first of the hundreds of Ovoos we've seen in Mongolia en route to Terelj N. Park. |
 |
| Our ger camp in Terelj N.P; ger is the Mongolian word for a yurt. |
 |
| This one was ours and shared with Cissy and Yasu. |
 |
| Having a delicious mutton and pasta soup in our ger with Cissy and Yasu; each meal was delivered to our ger by our ger hostess. Mutton is the Mongolian staple meal; of our 4 meals in Terelj, 3 were basically the same: mutton with potatoes, different types of pasta or rice and slivers of carrots. |
 |
| Our ger hostess in her ger preparing our meal. |
 |
| Our ger "camp" was a very modest one compared to many fairly lavish compounds; we were so lucky with ours, we thought. |
 |
| Perhaps not SO lucky when it came to our toilet in the outhouse; note the toilet seat! |
 |
| Gorgeous wildflowers in the hills near the ger. |
