Although we hadn't had any plans to travel this year, we ended up going to Mongolia!  A friend we met in Mongolia in 2004 reconnected with us via email.  We were so thrilled to be in touch again with Boldo who invited us to visit him and see the orphanage that he has started in Choibalsan.  It's in the north-eastern corner of Mongolia very close to the China and Russian borders.  We loved working with the 26 children and getting to know them.  We also worked with Boldo in the church that he is pastoring.  It was a thrill to visit our Mongolian friends Badmaa & Ulzzi in Erdenet, an overnight train trip away from UB.  We spent time in Ulanbaatar and were able to stay in Craig's Uncle's apartment. For more information and photos scroll down to previous blogs.
