We made it to the last long weekend of the year. Two months from now, the school year will be over! The gelato place in town is open for the season, but so far the weather hasn't cooperated.
Last Monday, we had a snow and ice storm along with the infamous Bora winds. Passerby might have thought I was ice skating across the primary school parking lot, when, in fact, I was being blown by the wind across a sheet of ice. But the weather has gotten a bit nicer (we even had an hour of sun today), so hopefully I can finally put my boots away for the year.
I have finally kicked the sinus infection that knocked me down two weekends ago and left me speechless all last weekend. Tom thought that was pretty fun for one day, but it got old quickly. My students also liked that they ended up with a day without classes!
The big party at school this week was busted in another residence hall. Which means Tom and I were not responsible for those students getting in trouble. So, contrary to popular (student) belief, Tom and I are NOT the only residence tutors who actually care about enforcing the rules.
My tutorial group actually liked the food that Tom made for dinner this week. And since he did the cooking, they did not descend on our kitchen and ruin our stuff, which made us happy, too.
Tomorrow we head to Croatia for a few days, to visit this park. Go take a look--it is beautiful! We hope that the weather forecast (yes, more clouds and rain) is completely wrong, and we have a few sunny days for hiking, birding, reading books and doing photography. We have packed raingear just in case, and I will take an extra book. As I sit here typing, listening to the crashing weights in the gym underneath our house, I think I will be happy just to be away for a few nights!
Happy Easter! Hope that spring is on it's way wherever you are!
Haha...spring. That's funny.
