Home at last

After 36 hours of travel we made it back to America exhausted and hungry! The time zone change absolutley blows my mind! We left Mongolia on Monday afternoon at 3:40, traveled 36 hours, and arrived in LA at 9:30am Tuesday morning....I just can't rap my mind around it! We stayed with my aunt Tasha for one day - it was really great because we got to spend time with my grandparents. They have been traveling the country so we got to share our travel experiences with each other (although, they didn't experience anything as crazy as eating sheep head).








Yes, this is a boiled sheep head...which we ate!
We drove to Las Vegas on Wednesday and we will be staying here until next week sometime.
It is so nice to be home! We have been able to catch up on sleep, relax, and just enjoy the beautiful country we live in. Mongolia gave me a new appreciation for our freedoms and liberties.
I am so happy to be home with my family, home where I can speak the language, home where I can eat the food with out getting sick. Dorothy said it right "There is no place like home."

Hannah and LJ, we loved meeting you in Mongolia. You were actually there longer than we were - and we had the mission call!! Go figure! Please keep in touch with us "old people."

Getting to know you both was a sweet blessing from our Mongolian experience. So glad you are home safe and sound. Love you, Kathy and Don Carter
