Last pre-Germany Post
An ancient Scythian gravesite, now fixed up some, on the way to the village
So, the Wandering Family has wandered its way to Germany for a conference, and we have lots of pictures to post. But, before I do that, since the new camera is ALL the way upstairs and I don't feel like going and getting it, I thought I'd post the last few pictures that we took in T-land.
A couple of weeks ago I went out to a village with a friend to carry out a small relief project. There are a number of families in this town who don't have a lot of food to eat, so we wanted to help them out. We had a contact who we trusted to distribute the food, so we loaded up a friend's Uazik and took them a bunch of food (flour, sugar, tea, noodles, etc).
This is one of the grandma's on the list to get some help with food; she showed us her house and was very hospitable.
The only other thing I could find that was even halfway interesting was photos from a recent football tournament I was a part of. Thanks to some health/sports initiative from the federal government a few years ago, T-land has an excellent artificial grass stadium, and a group rented it out for a tournament.
This was my team; we were eliminated with a record of 0 wins and 2 losses (one of them to a very dubious penalty call). Well, technically we had another game to play as the tournament was suspended (long story, but suffice it to say that the managers of the stadium did not honor the original rental agreement), but I didn't come back after the delay to see what happened.
