Just finished meeting with the team from UNTIL, the ministry here in Mongolia who hosted our tour. Great people, great experiences.

There was simply no way to connect wth the Internet where we were, and the few times we found an 'Internet Cafe' (which in Tajikistan are about as fast as dial-up...), I used my time to send email to check in on things at home (since we also had no reliable cell coverage). So, no blog entries - sorry! And now, there are too many stories to tell to know where to start - or stop, but here's the overview. First, Ed and I stopped in Istanbul. We played some music in the street and helped lead worship at a 150-year old church, made some new friends and met with…
