Twincle Twincle Gobi Stars

In the Gobi Ger camp we were so far from any lights or pollution that you could see the stars twinkling-that’s not just a cute song. I usually need assistance to locate the big dipper, but it was nearly impossible to not look up and pick out the bright stars shaping the handle and bowl. The most incredible part was that there were no trees, so  sitting in the middle of the dessert you felt like you were in a giant planetarium.
