lacking the internet
we haven't had as much access to the internet as we wanted but we do have pictures and videos. Jeff is planning to upload some pictures tomorrow. I've just made the live page better, with better marked up map of where we've been from spot's site. Also make sure to check out the pictures from color on the live page. Though be aware that the web version lacks details and comments that only show in the iphone app.
it's day 4 and things are kind of a blur but are going well. We are getting into the swing of things and covering a lot of distance each day. At this point we are in a new country and language every night.
I'm pretty exhausted now and going to bed. Hopefully we will give more information in the morning before we depart in the morning.
The Mongol Rally is a UK-to-Mongolia, no back-up, no support, no set route adventure for charity - involving 15 countries and 10,000 miles' worth of mountains, deserts, bad roads, no roads, bandits, and various other pickles in comically unsuitable 1-litre cars.
Freedom costs a buck-oh-five. But we've heard that in Mongolia $1.05 also gets you a 3-story yurt mansion on the shores of Ögii Lake.
So off we go in our Fiat Panda. And since terrorism is officially over, Team America is now all about charity and liberation! Viva la Facebook!

It was very tasty, and I don’t even really like dark beers. Car’s performing like a champ, but it’s toughest days are ahead. Cross your fingers for us all! -Jeff
