Whoa! I'm Purple!

Well, today the "colors" came!! Today was the big holiday where people throw colors on each other all morning! You wear really old clothes (ones you don't mind getting ruined) and play (or lock your doors and hide inside :)). We had a lot of fun playing!!
This was our team! It was our end of the street versus the other end of the street! It was so fun! Our team totally won - it was awesome!! It has to be one of the funnies holidays I have ever experienced :)

Hey guys!
I don't know if you remember us but we were some of Bob D's other people. We met a couple times in VA and TX. We are now in Moscow RU. Things are good here. Happened upon your site and was glad to see you all are doing well.

Thinking of you both!

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

We're BACK! (with Rats!)

We made it back! The flights were so long (especially our 6 hour layover right off the bat) but we made it!! We flew from Tallahassee to Memphis (where the long layover was) and then Memphis to Detroit (see picture below). It was snowing in Detroit! The only snow we saw all the time in the states was at the airpots! haha! We left Detroit about an hour late because they had to De-ice the plane! I'm from the south so I had no idea that they did that... and that it would take so long! haha! We were an hour late coming into Amsterdam (where it was snowing too!) and had to rush to our gate (it was a blur of wooden shoes!)... When we got in the plane we had to wait about 1.5 hours while they de-iced that plane! So we got into the Captial at about 2:00 am!! When we got home we were welcomed to a rat infestation in our bathroom!!! EWWWW!!!! Aparently, if the toilet isn't flushed for a couple months and dries out, then rats can crawl UP the TOILET!!! yes... nice... They wrecked our ba...
