going quiet
written on April 13th, backdated to the 7th to make chronological sense of the rest of the posts
Orkhon, Mongolia
blew up computer’s power pack the other day so no pooter till we have traversed this continent at least – may not even be until early May when we make it to Berlin – don’t have zippy internet anyway
having the time of our lives though on a Mongolian ranch – milking cows, herding goats, riding horses
even taking a bath today when we’ve heated the water on the fire (first in a week – and another ten days till we get running water again)
amazing amazing amazing
wish we could share it with you, but it will have to wait (for a start I’m writing on a keyboard with Mongolian script – have discovered I can almost touchtype!!!!)
russian music playing in background
a wolfskin is hanging from the ceiling- two actually
Cossack-man sleeping on the floor beside me (and I don’t mean Rob – he’s in an orange painted Mongolian bed)
fire keeping us warm
amazing amazing amazing
hope this posts…….so long….

what a great opportunity to have the children paint pictures with their words…
Hello Team
I have been very absent for a very long time mostly because I have been very busy. Lovely to hear your latest though sad to hear your ‘pooter’ died. Hope you have access again soon.
Wow, here am I feeling virtuous because I walked the Northern Circut around Ngaurahoe over Easter and look at you – living it up on a ranch in Mongolia!
Awesome.
Kind wishes

More than six months out – is hard to believe half your time away is already gone. Sorry about the power pack – hope it’s fixable soon – for everyone’s sake! Still love reading about your ‘doings’ and pray you all stay well for the remainder of the journey.
Love and blessings!
