Pizza and pets

Saturday Diana and I decided we needed to get some new food for the acrobatic balloon fish.  We set off on foot across town in the direction we had been told there was a fish store.  We were walking in a westerly direction. 

Ulaanbaatar is not an exceptionally big city but it is several kilometers long and a couple wide.  After we walked a while we noticed a restaurant which confirmed we were headed in the correct direction.  Diana commented on how much easier mongolian is getting to read.

We were on a quest to find a different kind of fish food.  The internet is a wonderful thing at times and it has a wealth of information that at times seems useful.  We had discovered that some kinds of fish food cause goldfish to have problems retaining air in their neutral buoyancy bladders which results in them floating upside down towards the top of the tank.  We hoped to find a type of food that might not be so problematic for them.  We were successful in our quest and did find the "Angle-fish" store.  As you can see the pets are reasonably happy and mostly right side up, today.
