2 hours of form filling in the art room in order to get a new visa and a bank account.  A dull photo but a dull 2 hours.  Didn’t manage photos of the blood, fingerprints and photos being taken!  Let’s hope they let us stay!

A few child free hours in the city and look what we found……..

………… sadly there wasn’t much inside, except Tesco value spaghetti hoops, think I’ll survive without them!

SUNDAY

A very successful morning shopping trip.  Mongolians don’t appear to eat toast, this has taken 10 days to find.

Amazing what you find on the way to the supermarket.

What a fun filled, crazy week.  Feel tired before even starting work next week!
