Long Day

Hello All,

This morning B and I went to the special post office where our package from the US was waiting. We were able to pick it up pretty easily and bring it home and it seems everything is intact and we now have measuring cups and spoons-yeah! When we got back we were both very hungry and there was little here, so we went to an Italian restaurant about a block away called Angel's. We have passed it serveral times and wondered about it. The building itself is really beautiful, but there is ALWAYS a guy sitting in front of the restaurant. Though each day is a different guy, none of them ever speak or look at anyone, yet there they sit all day. We weren't sure what the purpose of this person was ... bouncer? valet? all around thug? who knows? Bouncer and valet seemed not very likely since we had never seen folks coming in or out, but we still were not sure. In anycase, we did decide to check it out and it turns out it is a very nice place with excellent food. It's nice to know we have such a nice place just minutes away from us.
After lunch, B went to the archives and I had my FIRST Romanian language lesson. It lasted two hours and I had quite a headache after, but I hope this means I can learn Romanian quickly. I have my next lesson tomorrow, so I guess we'll see if I learned anything today. After my hard work, I was rewarded with a movie at a local theatre. The movie (City of Ember) was fun, but the theatre had NO heat and that was definetly a downer. Well, next time I will dress in layers for the movies. Who knew? What a day.-S
