Back to the Beach
Lauren still loves the beach and hiking around. She has it made in her back-pack. She loves that thing. She calls it her "Seat-belt Back-pack" (because she has to wear her seat-belt when she is in it...)
This was on a November day on Second Beach at the Pacific Ocean near La Push, WA. We love hiking out here. Such scenery, and so peaceful. Never crowded. Truly a chance to get away from it all.
Excited to be hiking!
Bulgyn Koitai, our translator from Almaty, Kazakhstan paid us a visit this month. It was amazing seeing her again, and an amazing experience having her visit with us at our home. She visited us exactly two years after our initial meeting each other at the airport in Kazakhstan.

Bulgyn also helped us on 2 separate occasions during our journey. She met us at the airport in Almaty the first night of our first trip and when we were headed home after our court date, we were locked in the 4th floor apt and couldnt get out. Bulgyn was the only one who answered our call at 3pm in the afternoon on a Sat. On both of these occasions she was doing favors as she was not employed by AIP at the time. Being locked into a 4th floor walkup apt was very frightening and it took till 10pm that night for the lock to be cut open by a locksmith. We were very grateful to her for helping keep us calm. Please tell her hello for us and she is welcome here in NY if she would like to visit.
