Mongolia Day 1: Ulaan Baatar

I arrived here at Zaya's hostel about midnight local time, very tired, and was welcomed very kindly with tea and biscuits. Today I've been looking round Ulaan Baatar (UB) and in the main square I found a big military parade, with a band in colourful Mongolian dress uniforms, plus displays by commandos and some drill exhibitions. Unfortunately the Natural History Museum was closed today, so the dinosaurs will have to wait until next weekend.




Tomorrow I go off on the trip to Karakhorum, so tonight I'm reorganising my stuff to leave things I don't need until I get to Ikh Nart here in the store room.
