Hello!
Erin and I are here! We got to our apartment around 12:30 last night. It is nice. We unpacked and stayed up until nearly 3. We layed in the floor of my room for a while wondering if we were crazy. We came to the conclusion that we are but that our God is faithful, so we will trust.
We went shopping this morning. We needed blankets (we slept with just sheets last night...coollld) and pillows. We got some groceries too. I think we'll be using peanut butter as our main protein for a long while.
We should have internet and visas by the beginning of next week so i can talk to you all soon.
We are just going to rest tomorrow and then we will go to church on Sunday morning. One of the missionaries here, said that she would have a translator sit in between us, so that should be fun.
Monday morning we will start language classes...I foresee that being interesting and really difficult.
Right now we are just watching the tv shows that we have with us and movies, bundling up and resting before our life gets busy.
It is so strange to realize that I live here. I don't feel American right now and I sure don't feel Mongolian.
I am anxious and excited to begin meeting people and learning their stories.
Please, continue to pray for us as we try to adjust to the Mongolian life.
love, peace and joy.
