What was the coolest thing I saw in nature this week?:

I unfortunately did not go out much this week, since it was so cold. However, I did see it snow! I always love watching the snow fall in Ulaanbaatar - it turns the grayness of the city into a wintery white!

In other nature news, many of my friends have gotten to go skiing, snowboarding, and dog sledding! The Mongolian countryside in winter is extremely peaceful, windy, and blindingly white from all the snow.
