The saving frog went with us! Here he is riding in the taxi on Michael's knee!
but the saving frog REALLY wanted to ride in a bicycle rickshaw...
We went to "Fire and Ice" (a restaurant) for lunch. They had a poster of coca cola products in Kathmandu. Yep, you can find coke here!
The saving frog watched over Michael' Itouch while he ran to the restroom!
My friend "S" at "Higher Ground", after we worked on projects, the saving frog wanted to meet her!
Obviously, they were quite smitten with each other!
Our friend's orphanage... This is one of the boy's dorms
And then... the girl's dorms!
Notice any difference? Don't you just love WOMEN!?
One of the girls
Talking with my friend who runs the orphanage
My husband ordered a mattress today (not quite the same as going to American Family Warehouse)!
The mattress maker CAME to our house to make it! (bringing his cotton with him!)
His name is Ali Makhmed. The saving frog was curious.
He checked it out...
Then, he wanted to help SEW the mattress!
Michael plays on a British (??!!) soccer team. Here he is getting ready for a match...
Michael... and the team... in action!
The Kathmandu valley struggles with having enough water in the lines for all the residents. So, every two weeks or so, in the dry season (now!), we have to purchase a TRUCKLOAD of water.
Yay, our water truck arrives!
Our neighbor "dai" makes sure everything goes right!
They pull in a long hose and fill up our bottom tank
(we then pump it up to our upstairs tank to have "running water"!
the saving frog wanted in on the action!
he "rode" the water hose!
A few things make our life WAY easier here.
Like our coffee press - where would we be without it in the mornings?
(coffee grinder is to the right... we need that FIRST!)
our wireless router... which makes communicating with YOU, so much easier!
so, those were our "adventures" yesterday and today!
