Just a quickie...

... to let you all know that:

1. I'm still alive, and my tan has improved!

2. I still haven't managed buy a Romanian SIM card yet and so I continue to have no phone

3. I'm shocked by last night's World Cup final match - not necessarily the outcome (Italy played incredibly well) but the events that led to it (ie - Zidane's head-butt - very impressive!)

4. The Black Sea really is black, and I think that's mainly because there's lots of stuff floating in it. After you go swimming you could totally take off your swimsuit because you'd have another greenish-black swimsuit underneath it made of seaweed. It's also really beautiful, and I promise pictures will come shortly.

5. The president of the Czech Republic is here and they had a celebratory marching band and soldier thing going on at the Presidential Palace this morning across from my office. I got pictures of that too, rest assured.

Noelle, I finally read all your recent posts yesterday. You are simply great to post something almost everyday. That incident with the guy showing off dinero was hilarious. I am sure you will enjoy Bucharest.

I look forward to reading more posts and seeing more pictures.

So that's why they call it the black sea?
