And by the way…as it is written in the rules in the trip program….don’t put your leg on horse’s head :DDD


Fist step is to buy beers and vodkas for the trip (well the food is included, so no worries :-D

Mongol standard – this is what it was :DD

Our guide, Ogna and driver (for us his name was simply – Driver) got some water and food for us for the trip, so we were set!


On the way we started to learn that we should forget about formal toilet for the rest of the trip.

And the best toilet we would have, would look like this:


But the beginning of the trip was fun and beers helped!! :D


8 hours of driving and we arrived to the first Ger camp, at Kharhorin Monastery and saw our first Ger….

And the table outside where we could comfortably try Mongol Standard:

It was already late to visit Monastery, so we agreed to do it tomorrow.

Juli arranged with the Khongor people to plan our trip in order to get TVs all the days Spain was playing…and today Juli could watch Spain wining Paraguay 1:0

VAMOS!!!!
