While I posted Mme. Secretary's pictures connected with speaking events
in Mongolia today, I did not have a chance to share these depicting her
stroll through Sukhbaatar Square with Mongolian Foreign Minister
Gombojav Zandanshatar and Mongolian Ambassador to U.S. Bekhbat
Khasbazar on her way to a greeting ceremony at the parliament building.
The huge statue is Chenggis Khan. We also see her visiting with Mongolian President Tsakhia Elbegdorj at
the President's Yurt
(a traditional Mongolian building). The democratically elected Elbegdorj is a Harvard grad.
By the way, for a charming movie about Mongolian culture, see
The Weeping Camel
about a baby camel whose mother rejects him and will not feed him, and
two little boys who go to the city and convince a music teacher at the
conservatory to go play violin music to convince the mom camel to nurse
the baby. It's lovely. Every minute!
