Inner Mongolia and Karaoke here we come!!!!

After classes today we got Taiwan Pancakes. They are my new favorite food to eat. I get it with Bacon, Egg and Cheese. It is absolutely delicious, but very greasy- great for hangovers, or just in general.

Around 1, Laura, Katie, Heather and I left for Wudaokou to book our trip to MONGOLIA! A place my dad has never been... and he's been to a lot of places, so I feel pretty cool for being able to go to a place he has never been to. The first travel agency we went to said we would have to leave October 1st- which meant I couldn't go. My parents are coming from September 30th-October 5th, so we wanted to leave the 6th for Mongolia.

Thankfully, Heather and I saw an advertisement in the building for a different travel agency on the 17th floor. So we decided to go up there and check it out. It turned out it was a bigger travel agency and seemed a lot more legit. And.... they had a trip to Mongolia too and it was cheaper AND we could leave on the 6th and take a train instead of a bus! The only downside is that we are in hard sleepers. But, the four of us will be together so we figured we could handle it- it was that or no trip to Mongolia. The trip ended up being 680Y which is only $97! We are going for four days and it is all inclusive... the catch: lunch one day is hand shredded lamb.. yummmy! We are staying in Yurts. It's 6 to a yurt so we will be with two other people. I am so excited to travel to a place that I never thought I would go to.

After we booked our very cheap trip to Mongolia, we went to Carefour to stock up on water, coke, food, etc. Then headed back to campus to get baozi and get ready for the night. We are going to KTV... Karaoke! And Chandler is coming with us. It should be a very fun night!
