In a historic moment Mongolia clinched a gold medal in Judo- instead of writing on it I am going to shamelessly link to our friends and co-workers, the Lain’s blog. http://thelains.blogspot.com/2008/08/first-gold-medal-for-mongolia-in.html
If you have not met Larry, Krista, Avery and Eli I would like to introduce them. We will be going through language school together. They were one of the couples (among a total of 4 headed to Mongolia) that we met at Wheaton and we both live in Darhan (although different areas). They have been living in a ger (the felt Mongolian tent). Avery and Eli are about the same ages as Annika and Toby which is great!
I can’t believe I don’t have pictures of them! But I promise we will soon. The Lains love to rock climb- what a hardship having to bum rope rides off of them! We love you guys.

p.s.: Will you be dressing up in Mongolian traditional clothing for the closing ceremonies? If so, make sure to snap a picture!
