It was a bus, plane, and wild ride thru the desert in a SUV.
Bumper to bumper traffic in Ulaanbaatar any time of the day. One hour drive to get to old airport.A Cessna Caravan 9 seat airplane took us on a 2 hour bumpy flight to the Gobi Desert.All smiles before takeoffVery slow130 mph cruise in very choppy turbulent air. 4 of the 6 travelers got 🤢 sick.Finally landed Happy to be on the ground 4 of the 6 of us are hiding their airsick bagsVery bumpy and fast one hour drive thru the Gobi Desert to Three Camel Lodge. Our GerBeautiful inside our GerOur reward! Great selection of wine and bourbon

Are you looking forward to the return trip from the Gobi????
forecast for worse winds on return date had Viking scrambling, charter company might cancel. We are returning to Ulaanbaatar on commercial flight RJ jet(faster and flies higher). They only fly 3 times a week , we got lucky.,. So far . Other option was 10 hour ride in suv over gravel roads
