We pass by the drum tower (pic 1) and an Olympic post opening ceremony stage that they were in the process of building near the desert.
Posing with smiles to begin the second half of our day.
'Sand-sledding' would be the event of the day, along with a cable car ride back up. If you wanted to, you also could've opted for zip lining across the yellow (dirt) river. It was a long, steep way down....
Pic 1 shows the cable car ride back up. In the second photo, I over heard these guys saying to each other, "These out of country fools, did they not see how steep that sand dune is?" I sat there waiting for Caroline to work her way down. Is she gonna chicken out?
Just kidding. It was safe as can be as you see Caroline ripping her way down above. Though at one point it did get really fast and I had to pull my brakes a little bit. I've done this once in Inner-Mongolia, but that slope was not nearly as steep and the sled did not go as fast either.
Clearing out sand-filled shoes and taking a break after a long day at the desert.
And that concludes our part of the trip at the Tenggeli desert.
