For a few years now it has been a tradition that S hides some Easter eggs around our apartment for me to find, but of course in packing for our move to Bucharest we never thought to include any plastic eggs. A few days ago S commented that she was sorry there wouldn't be a hunt. I reassured her it was no big deal; so imagine my surprise when, after a shower, S merrily informed me that she had hid twenty-five chocolate eggs and a Golden Bunny around the apartment for me to find! It was a terrific start to the day, which only got better after a delicious brunch of french toast and scrambled eggs. The next few hours were spent trying to get the pictures from our Berlin trip online, which actually took a pretty long time. Snapfish kept giving us errors and so several times we had to start from scratch. We ended up taking a break for some fresh air, taking a walk through our beautiful neighborhood. The Romanian Orthodox Easter doesn't occur until next Sunday, so everything was business as usual today; next weekend I'm sure things in the city will be much more quiet. While having a snack at a nearby Lebanese restaurant, I think we realized that we're both feeling a bit homesick. It is true that we're two-thirds of the way done, but we've also been away from home a very long time. Being able to Skype with friends and family, or even simply email or chat has been a blessing, and we're extremely grateful for everyone's generosity. We wish you all a Happy Easter, and look forward to seeing you soon!
Love,
B and S
