Women's and Children's Day





Yesterday was Women's and Children's Day in Mongolia, a national holiday. In honour of this occasion the guys took-over in the kitchen so the girls could have a day off. Our camp manager cleaned the gers and Robin and I clean the toilets. We also a bags of goodies for everyone's kids and ice cream for all the ladies at lunch (a big treat in the south Gobi!).

You can put that on your resume now: "PhD Geologist with extensive toilet brush management skills"

You make us proud....

Around here I am toilet cleaner, nurse, IT guy, cook, driver, shrink, accountant and sometimes (rarely) a geologist.

Dentist?!?!?!
First nasty boils and now teeth issues? I hope you have submitted for extra pay under the "gross duties as assigned" part of your employment contract.
