Mongolia?

Yes, you read that right. I am going to be in Mongolia for 2 months starting 27 June 08. So that means I miss the Olympics...rats.

But I do get to see the Mongolian version of the Olympics, called the Nadaam Festival. Some of you might remember I was there in 2001 with Jo.

So there will be wrestling...think sumo, archery, and bare back horse racing...for 30km! Also a thing called knuckle bones, which looks like a cross between jacks and ten-pin bowling.

So I will write again when I get internet, which will only be in Ulan Bataar (UB). The rest of the time I will be camping...noice!
