1st Day in UB

Made it!! 2200hrs May 18th 55 degrees F

A smooth 24hrs later, Brando and I found ourselves (and all luggage) in a nicely renovated flat situated immediately behind (north) the Mongolian Government building.  Just a 5-10min walk from the office.
Without any actual dry dog food at my disposal, Bdogs first meal in over 24hrs was a big plate of mutton goulash...I may find it difficult to turn him back once I get to the store for supplies. ;)

I will validate that the driving habits of the Mongolian people are truly parallel to my own and that Boston holds no candle to this land where directional signals and rights of way are replaced with angered honking, unspoken "first-come-first-serve" intersection rules even when there are traffic lights, routine games of chicken when passing (our driver won every time), running up on peoples bumpers and, at night, intense flashing of the high-beams until they move.  A wonderfully brilliant system, from my point of view!

More later when I get set up on my own PC and internet.
