We arrived early in the morning instead of the night before, because the China Air flight was delayed by six hours. Our hosts were very confused abut who we were and where we had come from, but invited us in anyways, gave us hot coffee and reassured that we'd have a place to stay - either in the backyard gher (yurt) or, possibly, in a private! room. In a couple of hours a room was made up for us and we stayed there happily ever after.
