3600+ Miles on the road
and 1 really fat cat waiting in Darhan, so we hear
We landed last night at Chingis Khan Airport. The flight from Chicago seemed to go pretty quickly, although it was a bit bumpy at times. We flew over Hudson Bay and over part of the Arctic Circle, seeing floating icebergs and expanse of Siberia with dustings of snow. Annika and Toby were excited to see glimpses of it, although we were seated in a middle section (might need window seats next time). It was daylight the whole 13 hours and fifteen minutes. There was turbulence that affected little stomachs, but everyone seems fine today. We got some good sleep last night and we will see how today goes. Thanks for your prayers, please continue to pray as we travel to Darhan on Wednesday.

Seriously back in Mongolia? It seemed like a week ago you were sitting in our back yard w/ a fire in the pit and lobster in our stomachs. Glad it all went smoothly. Come back soon!!!

Not so sure the wedding band is still in the river, unless it was swallowed by a fish. Gold glitters in the clear river bottoms I’ve been told & until yesterday we have had very little rain.
