DAY 12

*****Hello everyone, Emma here. This post was sent to us by email about a week ago when Flora & Crew were having a hard time connecting to the internet. Sarah originally posted it in the comments section but I will now post it here as well. Logically, it should appear before the last post, so it is one out of order. Enjoy! ********

This is our last night for camping for a while. I can’t say that I shall be sorry .Our daily routine has been up at 5-30am, brush teeth, use the lovely tent loos, no water to wash your face only a wet one! Pack up the tent and the car rush into breakfast and grab yet another egg of some sort, lukewarm tea and then hit the road for the first check in point. Lunch is eaten in the car whilst hurtling down ridged and stony tracks. Tonight we are camped on the Mongolia, Russia border. We are all hoping that tomorrow will not take 9 hours as it did last time As we still have 518kms to travel after that. We are in good spirits and so far Flora is performing . We do have trouble getting up the hills at altitude but Lloyd stops, I jump out and put a rock under the rear wheel and then he charges ahead and I run to catch up, simple really.WE will be in touch hopefully within the next day or two.
