Woke up Monday morning not feeling very well. I think all the smoking (by other people) in the clubs and bars got to me. I forgot how sick it makes me! Showered in the apartment for the last t…
I tried to sleep in on Saturday. It wasn't really working for me. Heather had a 4am pickup for the airport. I was expecting Erica around noon. So I caught up on email, wrote, worked a little b…

I want to BE there!! (but only if you or Donato are by my side translating). I love your blog - almost makes me feel like I am there. I hope you are having fun while you work. It sure is a wonder how we are all so similar yet different no matter where a person is in the world.
