Dunhuang (6/3 - 6/5/09)

Dunhuang is a little town right out by the Gobi Desert - more of a farming town and less hectic as a city like Beijing, though bustling and busy in itself. A really beautiful and quiet transition from city to country.

Hello camel!

We rode camels to the Singing Sand Dunes in the Gobi Desert.

Orange booties to cover up shoes and pant legs and keep sand OUT. such was the fashion that day.

Camels resting after our intial trek to the dunes.

I got a sweet red hat to keep off the sun, everyone said I looked like Jessie from Toy Story!

Nearing dusk, leaving the dunes.
