Day 3

Good Morning!
Well, it's nearly noon here, but I still can't manage to quite get adjusted to the time. We are planning to get Romanian cell phones today, but have to wait until after noon to shower due to a a planned gas shut off. I wonder if this happens often. I'm glad we saw the notice on the gate or else we would have been VERY confused this AM.
We found out that we can not access Netflix streaming movies outside of the US-something about film rights, getting paid, etc. I say it's lame! We may, however, try to go to a local theatre and see a movie today or tomorrow.
I am, hovever, on a wireless connection right now that our landlords' son hooked up for us yesterday, so that is nice. Also, if we are up late, we can get CNN coverage from the US ... so that's nice to keep up.
We are glad so many folks have checked out our blog so far. We are happy to hear from folks and will try to add photos soon -- we have heard the requests!
Well, more later. Take care!

How great to read your updates! I miss you already. (You know me; I can tear up just thinking about it. So, even though you're the ones "stranded in Bucharest," there's solidarity in the "missing" department!)

Bummer about streaming Netflix, but good to hear about some English channels. That sounds good for you, especially, Shiv.

I'm grateful that your landlords are so welcoming and supportive, and I'm excited to hear about your neighborhood. Seeing pictures will be great!
