Back to UB and thanks to the traffic we only had a brief stop at the Bogd Khan Museum which is situated in the former early 20th century Winter Palace. Again photography was only allowed with a permit and I didn't bother, just sneaked a couple.
We then should have gone to Buddha Park, a pocket of peace in the busy city, but we simply ran out of time. A couple of the group were a little annoyed so Oogii promised we'd visit en route to the airport tomorrow - I do hope not, as the speed some people move at we could seriously miss our flight if the traffic is against us! It doesn't look particularly exciting anyway.
We had a very nice last meal, nothing different to the food we've had most other days, but in a nice restaurant and with a glass of wine included. Back early to the hotel as we have to do the final packing and be ready for a 0500 drive to the airport.
In the morning I quietly suggested to Oogii that he doesn't even mention the Golden Buddha and was pleased that no one else remembered.
Check-in etc went very smoothly and we headed for the lounge, where there was no sight once again of the other lady travelling in Club.
The flight to Frankfurt passed relatively quickly and the food was curious to say the least but there were a few bits I could pick at, although I wasn't tempted to try the classic garlic bread and jam combo
At Frankfurt we said our goodbyes to the others as several were heading to other UK airports and having collected our luggage were pleased to find that the sky train between terminals was working and so no need for the bus. Unfortunately immigration was the same farce but hey ho, we're no longer in the EU so what can we expect.
Flying into London we had the most beautiful views of the Thames.
Our conclusion on the holiday was that it was amazing and we are so pleased we've visited Mongolia with its wonderful scenery and delightful people. However the journeys are just too long and there is little of interest to see en route and sometimes nothing really at the end of it.
