Sandstorms Blow

This one happened while I was away. Our weather gadget recorded gusts of up to 80 km/hr.

Snake Extraction

Snake extraction, the movie...

Back in Camp

I have made it back to camp, after a long trip. My journey was more or less uneventfull, but James, my travelling companion was not so lucky. Every ticket agent, border gaurd, customs officer or other self-important petty official felt the need to harrass the poor guy. Must be bad karma for killing a snake or something...

Mal, the suit of armour in the picuture, I bought it for our living room, hope that is okay :-)

Cheers,

Stef,

Korea

I am back in Seoul. So far things are going okay. James's bag didn't make it from Vancouver but they delivered it to our hotel later on. The aggrevation factor was high this morning, checking in out flight to UB. The shoving, cutting-in and general chaos of the check-in line up was more than usual. We make it through eventually. I might have to drink on the flight however.

Cheers,

Stef.

Erika and Rowie

Here are the kids in the outfits I brought back for them. Erika liked her dress, but Rowan would have definitely have preferred a truck.

Back to Mongolia

I am leaving for the Gobi again today. The trip takes three-four days depending on which flights I get; and I used to complain about my downtown commute...

It was great seeing everyone again! I'll be back around August 4th.

Cheers,

Stef.
