After a long day and a half of traveling from Weymouth to London to Frankfurt to Beijing, Nick and I were excited about getting off the plane and begining our honeytrek in UB. Well, Mongolian immigration had other ideas! A long story short, you are not able to get your Mongolian visa on arrival even with a visa invitation from your mongolian travel agent and esp. when traveling with Air China! So with no explaination we were put back on the plane we just arrived on and sent back to Beijing. What was really annoying was the fact that the immiragtion prick would not talk to us or explain why we were being deported.
All was not lost, we did manage to take some photo's from the plane window.
Another 2 hour flight and 3 hours in Chinese immigration being 'processed' left us in no mood to search for a hotel. We jumped in a cab and headed to the only hotel we knew of, Raffles! Two very expensive beers in, Nick and I were back in high spirits and laughing about deportation. Our first adventure as husband and wife!
