We are A okay

Hey everybody, we found INTERNET! We are at Dasha's aunt's place and she let us use the internet to check on stuff and plan our greece portion of the trip. Thanks matante for the hints we started learning greek a few days ago (but only know 5 words: yes/no please thanks and bank). Thanks for all the other great comments, keep it up it's really nice to hear from back home. Feel free to ask any questions and we will answer them next time.

We just checked dasha's grades and she got straight A's. So hooray! She's so smart.

Essentially since the last blog we have eaten more than a year's worth of foods and had alcohol levels surpass our bloodcount everyday. Vodka or wine, it's all shot morning until nightfall. Also we have had nice walks down memory lane in all of Dasha's childhood places, we went to her old school and house and now we get to be royally treated at her grandma's place (her other grandparents from russia are visitng until the 30th). The weather is cold and stormy so we sleep and eat and not much else... We are eating and sleeping now so that later when we need to tour we can skip that part.

Well we are off for another shot of vodka in celebration of Dasha's brains (which we will fry for next term)!

Congratulations Dasha on your excellent grades! It's great to see your very hard work rewarded! I hope you're having a relaxing and exciting time, and recharging your batteries. It was great speaking with Stéphane and catching up on your news on the weekend. We look forward to seeing photos and more stories in August. Take care and have a super time for the rest of the week in Mariupol.

Hooray Dasha . . . Congrats and Cheers for all your hard work in getting such great grades. Thanks Stephane for your notes. You write a great Blog and Marcy and I sure do like hearing all about your adventures. Vodka and Wine can be a deadly combo on the head . . Hic! No problemo. Both of you will have lots of time to dry out on the beaches in Greece. Ahhh Greece . .:-)) Take Care. PS: Warm sunny weather has been hard to find back here too.
