Formatting ist still kind of an issue, but I think you'll get the point.... I spent quite a bit trying to fix it, and the top part just didn't want to cooperate.
Pics from a sunest over the Gobi deset, a little cloudy, but still spectacular!
Sunrise at the airport before we left.
Wild Yaks (at least we think they were yaks) we saw while hiking in the Gobi national park.
Hiking in the Gobi National Park, really awesome rock scenery.
In the national park we just got to hike wherever we felt like, so we saw a rock and went for it!
Moonrise over the Gobi.
Gobi wasteland. I was amazed at how little there really was out there. The round structures you see are called "Ger's", and it is the traditional housing for the nomadic people. They used to put it on a camel, but nowadays it's more often on a truck....
Nomadic children at a nomadic family that we visited.
This is the Ger camp that we stayed at in the Gobi Desert called the 3 Camels Lodge. It was actually much nicer than I expected, and fairly comfortable.
A traditional ger with a "tradiational" means for receiving a cable signal.....
This is the fossil that I found at the "Flaming Cliffs", which is one of the most rich areas in the world for dinasour fossil. This turned out to be a birds' foot imprint from the early cretaceous.
The Flaming Cliffs. First place where dinosaur eggs were discovered. It amazes me that there were no excavations going on, nor where there any ropes or any restraints at all. We literaly got off the bus and just went wandering around!!
Yup, I'm at the Ger camp.
Vastness of some of the dunes in the Gobi.
Yup, wild camels!
