Dinner with Kate and company was bittersweet. We were all talking about what it will be like to be back home, and the culture shock. We also discussed how hard it will be not to say, "And in Mongolia" or "When I was in Mongolia", or "That reminds me, in Mongolia...."
We also started talking about food, as the variety of food in Mongolia is quite limited. We all had descriptions of various food we wanted to eat. The discussion ended with me saying, "I think I'm going to look in my parents' fridge and start to cry." (I'm excited for strawberries, mangoes, cheddar cheese, real coffee, Money's mushroom burgers, Japanese sushi, cranberry juice, and broccoli.)
After supper, we went to the UB palace to dance, which was fun. I saw the mechanical pig, and was somewhat disappointed. I didn't see it in action, as it was just sitting by the side of the stage. I think it's papier mache or something. I was hoping for something for mechanical.
Ingrid sent me a whole schwack load of edits, so I'll be hard at work on that tomorrow.
