I\u2019ve been keeping lists of things that are arriving to\/disappearing from central Ulaanbaatar: December 2019<\/a> | June 2019<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0April 2019<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0December 2018<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0August 2018<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0October 2017<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0June 2017<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0May 2016<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0December 2015<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0May 2015<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0May 2014<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0October 2013<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0October 2011<\/a> | August 2011<\/a>. More informal versions of these observations also appear in the \/ulaanbaatar\/change\/<\/a>\u00a0category.<\/p>\n

Bulgan<\/a> added her observations in Spring 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve copied the 2014-19 lists here and am adding to it. New items since previous posts appear in\u00a0italics<\/em>. Since this list has been growing, I\u2019m also beginning to delete some items that I\u2019ve had on the list for some time.\u00a0Strikethrough<\/del>\u00a0means that these items will be off the next list.<\/p>\n

This list was cruelly interrupted by something that was new to the world in 2020, a global pandemic and thus restrictions on travel. After not being able to visit for 32 months, I finally made it back in August 2022.<\/p>\n

What has arrived?<\/h2>\n
