Thankfully I woke up with my strength back this morning. I was very relieved as the day before I had thoughts of having to go to Altanbulag (the closest town, 18 miles/30 km away) on the back of a motorcycle, over outback terrain, while feeling like hell to see a doctor. Then the though of even going to Ulan Bator to see an English speaking doctor crossed my mind which would mean ending the job at the nomad camp.

BUT, my body and mind redeemed themselves and I felt much better than the day before:

Still my hosts told me to take it easy today after the morning goat sorting. The day was rather uneventful, and I just did a few random tasks and helped with the evening herding and sorting. Rather than writing a boring post about today, the next one will describe the typical day of a nomad.
