Two days of hanging out, plus some moldy slime

Monday: Sar and I hitched a ride to Oradea with Dave and explored their walking street while he ran errands.  I loved the beautiful old architecture! The only thing that stopped me from taking countless pictures was not wanting to look that much like a tourist.  (We were already the quick-google-the-word-for-"bill"-so-we-can-ask-for-it-when-she-comes-back and the how-much-do-they-leave-for-tip-around-here? people.)

Two worlds living next door to each other

Friday: This weekend was Iza's birthday and the kids had a blast making "human sundaes," which is basically an adults worst nightmare: children running everywhere, covered in whipped cream and flavored syrup, hyped up on cupcakes and soda, begging for water balloons to throw at one another.

Finding joy in pee and poop

Tuesday: A journey to the supermarket when you don't speak the local language... Sar accidentally bought a lottery ticket and I held up the line for several minutes while an employee ran off to weigh my produce because apparently they don't have scales at the cash register.  Whoops!

Sergiu (share-JZOO) is my newest favorite preemie
