Further news from Abroad

Patsy123, ZipMedia's Roving Reporter, breaks cover again:

Hi all,Now in Ulaan Baator after two days at the ger camp. Can't describe it in few words. Most amazing place, never seen so much open space. Warm gers, good food, went horseriding (loved it) tried archery (was useless). Journey from Siberia to Mongolia was an experience not to be missed. Tell you about it on my return. With a great group of people, all eating out this evening.. Tomorrow am. train to Beiijing. This will be last message I expect. We are both well & hope you all are.

Which made me rush to Google to find out what a ger is. Turns out to be the proper Mongolian term for a yurt.
