Rose too early.
Eyes stayed shut, brain was bustling.
Breakfast. Shower. Shopping.
Hoping all the while to actually wake up...Didn't happen.
Still, came home with shaving cream, sponges, soap and...I forget. Anyway, we bought it.
Car-Purchase stalled out due to Patriot Act.
That is, Security Bank required to ensure that seller of the car is not a terrorist,
Thus, no real agenda for the afternoon.
So...tomatoes + salt + beef jerky = lunch
Post-lunch: "free" walking tour.
3 hours of vivid history (beheadings, adultery, suicide, injustice) interesting architecture,
3 hours of the sun impersonating gigantic spotlight. Hot as the stage, few shady scene changes.
Came home: strangers in garden.
Strangers; "Hey, how would you like to be extras in a film?"
As one: "Sure, absolutely."
Misgivings: what if it's that kind of of film?
It's not. Adventure documentary.
Fifteen people on a sidewalk count down from three,
Cheer ferociously for thirty seconds.
Motivation was easy: WE'RE IN A MOVIE!
Sweated like ice in an oven, and decided to splurge.
Best cup of coke, ever.
Hashbrowns, onions, and lentils for dinner. Zesty is not yet the word.
Fears alleviated: car owner wasn't a terrorist, apparently. The money went through.
In consequence: early tomorrow we move from the hostel, and we start in on the paperwork.
In conclusion: Things have been set in motion that cannot be undone. Here it comes, prayers are appreciated.
Ps. Sorry if this made it difficult to read. We walked a lot today in a lot of sunshine, so I was feeling like incomplete sentence fragments. I promise not to make a habit of it. We would definitely appreciate your prayers as we move tomorrow, and try to get the legal whatnot worked out with the car.
