Last night we discovered that on the 1st of each month you can't by booze in Mongolia!! After recovering from the shock we persuaded a local restaurant to sell us some, crisis over. Spent the evening in the hostel chatting with the other guys staying there and listening to some guitar.
Today I spent the day walking around Ulaanbaator visited the monastery with the 26 meter Buddha, very impressive it was to!! Sorry no pictures, not aloud unless you bribed the guard for $5.... which I thought was not really right.
I then went for a wonder to have a look at the Mongolian national stadium, where I watched some amazing archers practicing!
Time to chill out for the rest of the day to get myself ready for the footy tonight
COYS!!!!
hi mate
ReplyDeleteWhat a game what a night, not very often they come around Bale was imense. maicon didn't want to go near him by the end the whole team played fantastic little luka modric was the best midfielder on show and when you consider what other players where out there thats some acheivement.
Hope you got to see the game as not often you can be genuinely proud to be a spurs fan this was one of those occasions.
not sure if you got to see our anual defeat(and poor refereeing decision) at old trafford. we matched them for most of the game but still lack that belief that we can win at those places while clattenberg made sure we didn't.
hope your well love reading the updates and safe travels mate

Hi JT,
ReplyDeleteMe and Jamie reading your blogs all the time. I'm loving hearing about all the places you have been to - you have done so much already in the short time you have been away!! Sounds like you're having a good time though. Take care

Hey guys,
ReplyDeleteYep I got to watch the game in the end, with one of the guys I've been travelling withbthe last week or so who is also a massive Spurs fan. I still can't quite believe it what a game. Somehow even watching it at 3.45am in Mongolia it was one of thr greatest games I've seen. Not to be negative but I still think we will make it difficult for ourselves before the end of the group stage..
Nice to hear someone is reading the blog!!
