Everyone is well - just tired. The ladies went to visit Sevince this morning while Jim and Logan cooked up hamburger helper and mac and cheese for the students. The guys will go finish the fence at the children's home this afternoon while we stay here to do English class. The students have LOVED the hot popcorn - our biggest hit. We also had jello for them today with the mac and cheese, but they say you don't eat something cold when it is cold outside. We will have dolma for dinner tonight which is much better than mac and cheese!! We will go to language classes at S&P this evening before dinner.
It was cold and rainy yesterday, but even colder and more rain today so we are looking forward to the warm weather at home. The high here today is 7 degrees Centigrade - you'll have to do the conversion as I don't have it in my head - just know it is bone chilling cold. The streets run with muddy water when it is raining so we are becoming good puddle jumpers too! The people have been so gracious and we have really enjoyed being here. Bonnie and I are staying with a lady who is working here at CARD. She is a magnificent hostess - she won't even let me sweep the floor. Mallory will be staying with her for the month she is here. We leave tomorrow about 11:00 to begin the drive back to Baku. It is about six hours as the road is still under construction. You might think of us during that time - our driver is very good but it is a very long trip. We then will spend a portion of the night in Baku - leaving the hotel at 4:30 am to go to the airport. Thanks so much for all your support. See you soon!
