Wake up, we have to Hohhot. A surname package our Mongolian guide will be bleary-eyed out of the station, came attached to
Near a hotel where grooming, eating breakfast. Package I. Wei Ren is very amiable, and highly capable, quiet, and bookish very strong, Inner Mongolia Normal Large

Then days have been great light, Hohhot, passenger flow, see more than a small town only 65 million people, began its hustle and bustle of the day. In particular, five
An arrival, as if some of it seems a bit hectic, to be honest, with us in any sense of the city's peri-urban areas no
Different: the secular, not clean, but it is true. 1:00 do not see this is 1400-1700 m above sea level plateau inhabited by minority nationalities

Drove nearly 4 hours sleep in the car people have almost turned over, to 11:30 or so, we finally came to the destination. This is a
Grassland-based resort. If you just look at the size of this place, you will think of the "vast" is the word, because it is really a look
Boundless in the distance only heaven and earth, there is more that is open. But let almost everyone unhappy with the fact that land is actually a
Bare, no grass, we can only considered to be "desolate." Mongolian villagers told us that there has been no rain this year, so
Kusano did not grow back. It seems that we can only come from thinking superimposed the kind of "wind-swept pastures are cattle and sheep," the feeling of a!
Side of the road in the grasslands, dotted with yurts, Mongolian villagers took us to tonight, before we have to live in yurts. We have not entered the

Added yesterday:
To go, it smelt a strong smell of mutton sheep. Tour guide, pointing Wai yurts of the blanket, said: "This is surrounded by sheep felt yurts." Strange
May not taste so great! We are hesitant, afraid to go in when the tour guide helped us borrowed robes of Mongolia, let us put on a good shot

Son. According to them some silly (inherently stupid).
We are busy with photography, the villagers have begun to make arrangements for a meal of. Lunch is to eat a traditional Mongolian dishes - lamb clutch. Originally I was not used to the sheep
Meat, but to listen to tour guide said that afternoon riding is hard physical labor, do not eat will be tired of. There is no other co-taste the dish, so had to eat this
A. Grabbed a huge lamb ribs, hand-off from a knife, brush the cut one, and then thrown into the mouth chewing half a day (lamb only 8 points
Cooked), and then swallow. Heard of the Mongols like to eat the lamb with a bloodshot, but also in the tongue with a sharp knife. Really ... ... that our table
Girls are more eat mutton. Another table has two South Koreans, a Swiss, an Australian, lamb, such as Kazamaki
Canyun like disappeared. In particular the Australian buddies, finished straight also asked: "Every night I have lamb?" I think he found a home
Felt.
Finished the meal go horse riding, this is our coveted programs. I move more slowly, so people regard the horse finished before I picked out. 1
See no horses are anxious. A Mongolian villagers pull over a horse, said: riding this. I saw that this is a very shiny black Ukraine
Piebald, mane in the sunshine extraordinarily moist, and my heart very glad: this horse beautiful for words. Can ride overhauled to find how this horse than the next
Than a large portion of the horse, that is, a high-Head Malaysian! This is not making it explicit harm me? No wonder no one choosing this piece, and if from this guy on the throw

Blowing down the companion of a hat, happened to shock the back of a horse, it just get Teng Chiao jump into right away and fell under the Swiss Miss
Come. Fortunately, the landing is a hip, little cause illness. But the tour guide scared unbearable.
Ma is a linkage effect, often a horse to run up, it took a team of horses ran away, but the more urgent the more Ben. On the return trip on the road, I
They open up the reins, the horse ran up the results of the patience, I feel there is a mood-elevating pleasure. But Britain too much. Then you want to
Slow it down too hard, and I put my hand le red, Ukraine Zhui was a little reluctant to slow down a bit, once again went before the horse behind the
Head, it also refuses to write.
Two and a half hours later, we returned to the camp. South Koreans found themselves missing camera battery cover was estimated to be riding the next time Britain
Come. Vast Huang Yuan, where to find ah? But they insisted on finding their own way to go along quietly. Toss nearly three small

Dinner, the Mongolian woman to propose a toast, can not drink, so both men and women, have at least 60 degrees over the grasslands to drink a bowl of white. The strongest reaction
That is to go with me sandra, and come out at horse race on the staggering, rickety.
Dark, and cold grassland, very quiet, we are around the charcoal fire - bounce to!
Have never seen so many stars, so bright, so close. Reminds me of a book called "Under Sirius."
Sleepy yurts Health and the stove, it is warm. Strong winds blowing outside, only about 1-2 degrees. We played cards for a while slept. I
Add a charcoal before going to sleep to see if the table is at 1:20 on May 2 a.

Miles away, the original Mongolian steppe has been acceded to by a swallowed by the desert. Car driving out of the urban area near Baotou, first saw the Yellow River.
