First a couple nice boring days where we were able to enjoy the roads and put some miles behind us. We were looking forward to our first night out camping of the trip, but it didn't quite turn out as we had hoped.

Continue making our way south and soon west as we contend with strong cross-winds (not such a big problem) and large river fords (a relatively bigger problem).

Better roads now as we make our way through the plains of northern Inner Mongolia, all the way up to the Russian border and back down south again. Also find out about our stay at the Mongolian yurt camp!

A very eventful day as we make it into Inner Mongolia- 20km of heavy road construction, beautiful roads, massive downpour, more beautiful roads, and a wedding dinner party to cap it all off!
