Refreshing Days in UB
Thursday, October 30, 2008 After getting all my computer work done at Eagle first thing in the morning I spent the day with Pastor Ganbold. First things first, of course, so we got a taxi and went to the Irish Pub for lunch. I had the Grandkahn breakfast, very similar to the amazing Scottish breakfasts I've enjoyed in Scotland, and Ps Ganbold had some type of Singapore stir fry. Both were excellent.
After chatting for a while we got another taxi and went to the Goyo cashmere factory. I've been talking with Ps Hetee in Darkhan about cashmere sales online and brought up the subject with Ps Ganbold. We arrived at the factory and paid the taxi driver extra to wait. (He didn't.) We took some time to speak with the sales and export manager, both who were very kind and patient with all my questions.
I wish I could explain how soft natural cashmere is to the touch. I'm looking at having them make a special baby blanket. Can you imagine anything more wonderful for your baby than a natural cashmere baby blanket?
We got another taxi (do you see a pattern here?) and went to the grocery store near my apartment. Ps Ganbold helped me buy some Russian milk, Russian butter, bread, blackcurrent tea (yummy), cookies, eggs, and my favorite apricot and granny apple juice. I showed Ps Ganbold all the literature I had brought from Foursquare Missions Press and we're going to work on getting some pub's done in Mongolian.
About 8:00 PM I almost fell asleep standing up. My energy disappeared like the new rechargable batteries. They go and go but when they're out they're out. I fought to stay awake for the next two hours and finally hit the sack around 10:00 PM.
This morning I woke up, made some incredible oatmeal with cranberry raisins, Russian bread with Russian butter, and, of course, tea and juice. Mind blowing how good this all tastes.
Then off to Eagle TV to get all my computer work done. I then met Ps Ganbold for some more time together. We walked over to his office, stopping along the way at a shop where he had his cell phone battery charged (15 minutes). The other part I can't tell you or they might arrest us. :) We spoke at his office and then I had to take a brisk twenty minute walk back to my apartment to meet a good friend, but he couldn't make it.
So, here I am, back at Eagle TV, writing my blog, updating my other web site, catching up on the news (congrat's to the Phillies), and loading a short video of my apartment. Enjoy!
