These photos are from in and around Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. Lots more for when we get home, a long time in the future.

Zaisan Memorial. The Soviets built this to show their might and power.

“Awar” (?) on Zaisan memorial. Locals circle around the memorial three times, throwing a rock each time for “energy”.

Kim at a Ger in Gandan Monastery.

Manzushir Khiid. A monastery since the 1700s, it was destroyed in the 1930s by the Soviets.

Horses and Ger. Complete with a Trabant car in the background.

Turtle Rock in Terelj national park. Can you see a turtle? We pretended that we could.
