New Photo Album - Amina the Mongolian Monster

Uploaded a new photo album "Amina".

Amina is the three-year-old daughter of our Mongolian friend Bujima, who generously allowed us to stay at her place in Ulaanbaatar before we headed for the ultramarathon race. During the week we spent with Amina, we observed several things of her:

1) She's super energetic - she woke up before us and slept after us. Whenever we opened our eyes, she was either screaming, jumping on sofa, or eating loads of snacks...

2) She eats a lot - by 3-year-old she can finish a full bowl of udon at Sakura restaurant, a famous Japanese restaurant in downtown Ulaanbaatar. When she's done, she would also pay respect to the owner by yelling, "Oishi!!" ("delicious" in Japanese)

3) She likes photography - when we arrived at her place, the first thing that caught her eyeball was my Pentax Optio WG-1 camera. Amina grabbed my camera and played for days, taking tons of self-portraits. Here is an example of her masterpiece:
