Thursday 17th May - On route to the border.


Made it to Jining on schedule although Kip did the last 70 miles on a tow rope. His car was rather sick. Initially we thought he was going on a tow rope just to get off the motorway to a safe place, but the driver and guide didn't want to be late for their supper, so gave Kip a cold and rather hairy journey the whole way to the hotel. We're now concerned that, if we can't fix the car in good time, we won't make our crossing by Saturday when our Mongolian entry papers run out.


Hotel in Zhaingjakou: State owned and very communist in style
