Yesterday, I attended the first ever Marine Ball in Ulaanbaatar. It was an honor to be a part of this! About 160 people were present--including twenty from our school and many Mongolians from different walks of life. It was amazing to see our two countries/cultures come together. It made me proud to be an American.
I met the U.S. Ambassador Piper Campbell, Lt.Col. Ruth Pulaski (retired), and the eight marines who are stationed at the Embassy. Please click on this link to learn more about the Marine Security Guard
I have added photos and two short videos that I think you'll really like.
Some of you know how much I love to dance--well, I danced until midnight and it was very fun!!!
Sometimes I'm really surprised at all the things I'm learning by being on this journey.
