Mediterranean Babies


Both Ruth and Esther seem to be adjusting well to the Mediterranean climate/culture. Ruth is enjoying some new foods like olives, feta cheese, clementines and chocobananas (a chocolate covered banana flavored candy).
Esther can hardly leave the house without someone saying how sweet she is and giving her a kiss on the forehead (this seems to be where babies are kissed here). Unfortunately she also seems to attract mosquitoes, if I forget to put the net over her bed at night.

internet at last

rejoice with us!  yesterday, our friend, Lazar, after much trying, was able to set up internet in our home! :) Exactly two months after our arrival we are finally able to check email, facebook, and post to our blog without walkijg around looking for unsecured wifi service or buying tiny bottles of Coke at internet  cafes.
