Things That Go Bump in the Day
Some of you know that if I try to read in a car, I get car sick. Or if I’m on a bus, I need to sit up front, or I get car sick.
The roads in Mongolia are mostly dirt and rock/stone, and the roads in Western Mongolia are better suited to horses and camels than for vehicles. Lots of bumps. The kind of bumps that threw many of us into other people, or the ceiling of the van. As an illustration of the effect of the bumps, about two days after the ride, I had a bruise on my lower back from the fine Russian seat in the van.
It may be no surprise to you then that on the 8 hour drive from Ulgii to our first camp site, I got car sick. 🙁
Our trusty vans that hauled us into and out of the Altai Tavn Bogd National Park
