A Trip to Mongolia – Day 2

Glorious sunshine awaited on the second day and after breakfast I was out for “revenge” and went to the same spot as the day before though this time without rain. This Buddhist prayer flag post was at a great spot overlooking the surrounding valleys.



The only person I met was a rider who was phoning while riding. When I came back to the hotel compound there was an unusual meetup, the gentleman from the day before whose real ger I visited, was with his car inside the hotel’s compound grazing his horses there. So, his deal with the hotel includes also that. We greeted each other and I think he asked me where I went and I told him up the hill to the prayer flag pole. I asked him if those were his horses and we sort of understood each other without speaking each other’s languages which was kinda funny. Then I walked on and a bit later he sped with his truck into the field and was herding his horses with his car! Haha, modern horse herding in Mongolia
