A bit of the Gobi Desert

Hello from China
The sand dunes are very impressive but it really is commercialised and its difficult to hear the sands singing or even any silence with number of tour guides with loud hailers and vehicles to drive you into the desrt to get away from it all!
The quietest trip was apparently on camels but those who went said that they had the same propensity to break wind with every step as the ones we spent three days on in the Thar desert in India
These ones looked much better, even pretty
The only wildlife that was not there for the tourists was this guy who walked up the dune I was standing on, over my foot and down the other side
