New Year's Party

New Year's is called Shin Jil in Mongolian. 'Shin' is 'new' and 'jil' is 'year'.
The hospital workers got all fancied up and we went to a nice restaurant, an English Pub called Green Corner.

Pretending to be artistic
My counterpart Solongo and me at our assigned table waiting for the shindig to start.

Father Winter, surrounded by his dancing girls, reading our names for our New Year's gift.

One of the games played. They taped a surgical glove box to the bum of a few people and placed a ping-pong ball in each box.
Then they turned on the music and the participants had to dance their ball out of their box.
This was absolutely hilarious.
This is also a picture of the winner!

A little dancing after the award ceremony.
Also a good picture to show how they dress for this party. It's formal!
I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but my Mongolians know how to have a good time!
