UZBEKI RESTAURANT

After our zone conference with President and Sister Pieper, they took us and our 2 Senior couples to lunch at this restaurant.


      Ashly, these trees reminded me of the AISB campus when it was in Chillibertz.  So beautiful.



Us, The Vincents, The Wellings, The Piepers.  The Piepers lived in Kazakhstan for 5 years and were instrumental in the Church being there today.  They have a deep, obvious love for the people there.  It was great to be on a mission tour with them--our first time to visit that country.


      Horsemeat anyone?  This is the horsemeat sausage.  I don't think Big R would approve of us eating horse.  Do you?



Our group in the lobby of the restaurant.  The Vincents are from SLC and they live in Almaty.  The Wellings are from Fielding, UT and they are the only members besides one Mongolian woman in the whole city of Astana.  These couples are amazing--truly pioneers.


                                             A beautiful quilt hanging on the wall of the restaurant.



                                                                       A unique lantern light.



                        Isn't the ceiling cool?  Notice the chandelier is made of several "I dream of genie lanterns."



                                              Our cute waiters.  The people are so warm and friendly.
