Library! - 6/18/07, Athens, 8:35 p.m.
So, first things first. I think my enter key is sort of broken. It comes and goes.
We had a good day today. I got to sleep until 9, which was really really a nice change! But, there are these kids who live in the apartment next to ours who I think might be the spawn of satan because they were up when I went to bed at 12:30 and they were up when I got up this morning and they were up when I got home at 5:30. It's very, very strange.
We spent our day in the American School library. It's basically the place where any academic goes to have access to texts and other things. It was really cool to see all the books and hear all the other people talk about the work they are doing. It sounds like there are some really cool things that people are looking into!
Tomorrow, we are going to this cave that we have to climb to. The book said an "energetic scramble." It should be a lot of fun, but really, really hot, which sucks. There is a point when you have to repel. Yeah, we'll be repelling down a mountain tomorrow. Sweet. Tee hee.
Hope the race went well yesterday! Thanks for the posts, Nola and Josie. I appreciate them. I hope the summer is going well for everyone!
That's all for now, lots and lots of love,
Xoxo,
Ally

hi... I think back to one of your earlier posts when you all started your first few days in Athens.. you mentioned being in a group of 17 and how large it was when it comes to touring.. Even though it was larger you had a blast. I am sure now with just the two of you you'll be able to see more and do more and learn more! I miss you too but still wish I am over there with you! Can't wait to see the things you have sent and can't wait till I see u at Thanksgiving! I am sure you will find more time to do other things and maybe reread your book?
with all my love...xoxox
Oh forgot to comment on the race.. it went very well and it was 73 laps in a short time! A british man won the race but he was also the first black man to win the GP! Tony told me he IM'ed with you.. that was cool. It was very hot here too.. mid 90's! We were short on volunteers but as usual we managed to get through the weekend! I think i ended up being too dehydrated but am okay now.
Woo hoo! A shout out in the blog! You know that was totally one of my goals!
