A Very Old Rock Graffiti

Our last day in the Gobi Desert...what an incredible area! Last night Tom and I befriended a goat as we were having a cocktail under the stars; and this morning he (we named the goat 'Gary') came to visit us and chilled in our tent. He had the funniest expressionless look - a complete blank stare - as we tried to get him out of the tent...but 'Gary the Goat' kept coming back in and at one point, he just sat down in the middle of the ger. He was so adorable and funny...I hope he didn't become dinner.

Drive to Kharkhorin was long and forgetful. We made a short stop at a rock formation (Arts Boyd) that had rock drawings/petroglyphs between 5,000 and 15,000 years ago. The drawings looked very similar to the drawings from the native American Indian (Utah) to the French cave drawings.
