| This photo was taken on Friday when we had our Sports Day. That's my blue team! The temperature was around 60 F. |
 |
| Two days later a shot from my apartment window as it's snowing and the temperature was 25 F. Same field. Also you can see all the construction that is going on. |
 |
| A view from Bogd Khan, a sacred mountain looking down into the city of Ulaanbaatar. ASU is very close by. |
 |
| This is a ger camp in the same area with a two humped camel spitting at anyone who got to close! |
 |
| Bogd Khan is a very popular hiking area. I didn't go far because I had forgotten it's about 10 degrees less than in Zaisan. As you can see the fall colors are coming alive. |
 |
| It's very quiet--a perfect place to meditate. |
 |
| My PA, Muugii. She's been at ASU for a long time and worked with my PA, Booggii in 2009-2011. She's wonderful!!! |
 |
| This is the area called Zaisan near ASU. The cream colored building in the middle used to be a Buddhist sanctuary only surrounded by the beautiful hills. I don't think the monks are there now. You can see how much encroachment has occurred. |
 |
| A chain!!! The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in UB. The gals on the right are teachers, Morene and Christy. |
 |
| We are celebrating my birthday at one of my favorite restaurants, Veranda--Italian. In the background is a Buddhist temple surrounded by development. |
 |
| My lunch at school--Udon with lots of beef, mushrooms and bok choy. Only 5000 tughriks or $2.50. Hot and delicious! |
 |
| One of the few Buddhist temples in UB. The boys are studying to be monks. I went inside, but couldn't take any photos. |
