The Independence Monument is in the shape of a plunger. Yes, THAT kind of plunger. LOL!
“From now on, the official language will be... Swedish.”
My dear late friend Lil (the one who died in my arms in a helicopter over a live volcano last July) was a missionary to that beleaguered country back in the 1990’s. She told me all about the crazy rotating gold statue which was surrounded by fountains in a drought stricken land.
She used to smuggle bibles under the Turkmenistan version of a Burkha.
I am honored that God chose me to be the one who held her when she died.
