It was very exciting to have our first lot of visitors come and stay with us here in Mongolia. In September we have our second lot of visitors coming as well.
John and Margie, Paige's Grandma and Pa arrived safely and over a number of days we showed them around the city of Ulaanbaatar and then travelled into the country side to show the them what I call the "two faces of Mongolia". The city and the country side are worlds apart and it was really nice to be able to show the two sides to the country we are living in.
