JUL 11, 24 .. NAADAM HOLIDAY .. BEST WISHES TO ALL ON THIS SPECIAL HOLIDAY ..

 

Every year, the Naadam Holiday is celebrated in Mongolia from July 11 to July 15. Mongolians passionately commemorate their nomadic lifestyle and heritage over the course of five days. The event begins on Revolution Day, Mongolia’s National Day, which commemorates the country’s independence from China on July 11, 1921. 

The festival is also locally termed "eriin gurvan naadam" (эрийн гурван наадам), "the three games of men"

The Naadam festival is officially hosted in Mongolia’s capital, Ulaanbaatar, and tickets are required for the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as certain other activities like wrestling. The celebrations, also known as ‘the three games of man’ revolve around three nomadic sports: archery, horse racing, and Mongolian wrestling.

Often, certainly not always, on an Important Holiday such as The Naadam Holiday, there can be a lot of alcoholic drinking. This can get us in trouble if we are not "on guard for the unguarded moment".

So be safe. Enjoy the day. At the same time, have a plan so that if it looks like things are "getting out of hand" in terms of alcoholic drinking and partying, you have a way to leave a challenging situation. 

Best Wishes To All for a joyous Naadam Holiday.

An absolutely wonderful event is being celebrated in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, this upcoming weekend, July 7th through the 9th.

July of 2023 represents the TWENTY FIFTH (25th) ANNIVERSARY of the A.A. Program of Recovery in Mongolia!

What a wonderful event it was when A.A. members in Irkutsk, Russian Siberia, began to carry the message of recovery South into Mongolia.

One precious day-at-a-time, and TWENTY FIVE (25) years have now passed into history.


Wowie! Off to Ulaanbaatar!


Such Fun!

APR 2, 23 .. AN AMUSING "DRUNK STORY"

 A drunk guy in Alaska decides to go ice fishing. So he packs up his stuff and goes out onto the ice.

He starts sawing a hole in the ice, and a loud booming voice says, “YOU WILL FIND NO FISH UNDER THAT ICE!”

The drunk looks up, ignores it, and continues on. The voice repeats, “YOU WILL FIND NO FISH UNDER THE ICE.”

The drunk looks up and says, “God? Is this God trying to warn me?”

The voice says “NO, I’M THE MANAGER OF THIS ICE RINK.” 


The Lesson : Don't go ice fishing when you are drunk.
