Birthday

The train is hot. When you step out you realize how hot they keep the car but I'm in the top bunk this leg and I can feel it.
The land is definitely different. Snow is nearly gone. Brown dried brush covered hills. Trails lead from the train tracks off through the ground and disappear.
We are moving south towered Mongolia.
Cows. Occasional horses and black birds with white markings are showing up but mostly nothing out the window.
Lot of people on the train. Travellers but mostly locals riding a train from a to b. Not an adventure to them just one more day before the next.
