- was woken up at 9:00 am by my mother
- stumbled around for an hour, eating croissants for breakfast and drinking tea mom made, and trying to evade my big brother Ale as he tried taking pictures of me (it ain't happening at 9 am.)
- checked my email and was pleasantly surprised by all the love that came my way (keep it coming!)
- went to the German embassy and renewed my passport
- got stamps from the post office, fresh bread from the bakery and ripe red strawberries from the grocery store
- wrote letters and affixed newly bought stamps to them
- ate injera with doro wot for lunch (yummy!!)
- watched TV with Dawn and played with the dogs
- painted a picture with watercolors of an Ethiopian landscape while listening to John Mayer on my Ipod
- had dinner with the family and watched "The Weakest Link" with them
- watched several documentaries on National Geographic TV
- rechecked my email :)
Ah, being on vacation. :) Now, I'm going to my room to read a book and then getting up at 9 again to bake Christmas cookies (it takes all day!). Looking forward to tomorrow. Icing, sugar, and chocolate, here I come!!
