Happy Holidays from Mongolia!

The beautiful Christmas trees are everywhere with their bright lights glittering off the snow and out into the night sky enchanting all of us.  Holiday cheer is upon us!  Please enjoy these unique Mongolian scenes.
Just the other night I enjoyed a Christmas dinner at a favorite restaurant with my former PA, Boogii and her family.  Sweet little Huchit is 3 1/2 and adorable!

A few of us went to the highly successful IWAM Christmas Fair and I couldn't resist taking this photo.  Dolls on one side and frozen chickens on the other!

Well, you know it's the holidays when a Bond movie comes out.  I don't think they'll hire us as the next Bond girls, but....

We enjoyed the new, very plush movie theatre in Zaisan and saw The Good Dinosaur in the VIP Lounge which seats about 25 people.  It was 30,000T which is about $15.00 and included Lazy Boy chairs, popcorn, soda and a blanket, of course!  


Christmas time at the Shangri La Hotel with a father and his two children enjoying the music.

On Sunday we had brunch at the Shangri La saying goodbye to a friend who studies Buddhism.  She invited four monks from one of the local monasteries.  Again, I couldn't resist taking this photo--two monks checking out their smart phone.
